Thanhha Lai's 2011 semi-autobiographical children's novel-in-verse, Inside Out and Back Again both exemplifies and complicates the Asian American immigrant narrative in its depiction of a South Vietnamese family's flight to the United States after the fall of Saigon in 1975.

Idyll and fissure – Ivo Kalinski's poetological texts about kajkavian children's poetry 1992 - 2003

The topic of this paper is the analysis of a series of nine texts by Ivo Kalinski dedicated to the Dragutin Domjanić Festivity of Kajkavian Children's Poetry, which is held in Sveti Ivan Zelina. The articles were written each year from 1992 to 2003 and published in the book “Anatomija kmice ili Umjetnina teksta – zanos i tjeskoba“ (2004). These are poetological articles in which Kalinski makes various observations about children's poetic texts, from which his starting points will be extracted in order to gain insight into his description and prescription of elementary school children's poetry. As the academic papers predicts, most of the poems thematize the closest environment of children, from family, house and yard, through the landscape, flora and fauna of the homeland, to the opening of themes of work and transience. In this way, nativeness is manifested as the core topos of children's poetry, significant because of the constitution of their identity, and excessively present because of their short and narrow life experience. But while the academic papers do not question children's thematization of the homeland from an aesthetic point of view, Kalinski writes about it and evaluates such works. Although other researchers of children's poetry do not see that there could be any steps beyond the horizon of nativeness, either in terms of content or form, Kalinski challenges the traditional approach here as well. Namely, in a series of examples, he points to the innovation of themes (social, emotional, spiritual) and to original poetic procedures, both in composition and in the lexic that deviates from the traditional props. Kalinski thus argues that in the more successful poems there is a split in both the poetic subject and the art, which leads the poetic creativity of young people in the direction of reflection, and points to a postmodern sensibility. In conclusion, in his texts, Kalinski provides a coherent and consistent poetics of Kajkavian children's poetry, which is based on nativeness, but conscious authors manage to establish an emotional connection between expression and content, which creates authentic texts that move off the beaten and uninteresting paths and affirm the authentic children's voice as a poetic and conceptual novelty.

ВЕЛИКАЯ ИГРА В СЛОВО: ОСОБЕННОСТИ ИДИОСТИЛЯ ДЕТСКОЙ ПОЭЗИИ МИХАИЛА ЯСНОВА

The purpose of the article is to study the idiostyle of children's poetry by Mikhail Yasnov, one of the contemporary poets. His children’s poems are a special type of text, the figurative structure of which is considered in a variety of language games with the word and folklore origins. The roots of children’s poetry by M. Yasnov go back to folk literature, which makes it possible to reconstruct such genres for children as a lullaby, a tedious fairy tale, a rhyme, a riddle, etc. The research material included poems from various collections for children. The authors analyze various methods of word creation and emphasize the role of language games in the development of children's creativity. Almost every poem of this poet is a game with sounds, words and concepts. Particular attention is paid to the influence of V. Khlebnikov’s works on M. Yasnov’s views. All this together reveals M. Yasnov’s message about the “formal image of a poem” for children’s poetry.

Poetry of War: Ukrainian-Turkish Manifestations

The main focus of the article is on Ukrainian poetry written since February 24, 2022, as well as Turkish poetry about the war in Ukraine. The study explores the figurative palette of Ukrainian and Turkish poems, pays particular attention to the multi-vector perception of the war situation through the eyes of Ukrainians and Turkish neighbours, and also to children's poetry (poems written by Ukrainian and Turkish children). Using the comparative method and the method of microanalysis, we discovered common and different images and themes in Turkish and Ukrainian poetry, namely, the image of Europe and America, cruel Russia, the image of a bear, the president of Russia, the image of a stolen spring, the theme of courage, the theme of a crippled childhood. Human values were common to Ukrainian and Turkish poets: human life, peace on the planet, family grief, and historical memory is also similar: in both Ukrainian and Turkish poems, the theme of the aggressive character of Russia from ancient times to the present day echoes. Prayer poems deserve special attention; faith in God unites the poetic world of the Muslim and Christian worlds. Children's poetry is the most painful element of war poetry, but even here the voices of little Ukrainians sound patriotic, with a dream for a bright future, and Turkish voices – with pleas to return childhood to Ukrainian children. The presented works must necessarily have their continuation – namely, translations into different languages, in particular Turkish, for spreading part of the strong-willed spirit of Ukrainians and intercultural communication.

”Dette skulle bli et dikt som noen skulle huske en stund”

”This was supposed to become a poem which someone would remember for a while”: Stage Art as Poetry for Children in the Theatre Performance Snutebiller, stankelben
 Abstract: Norwegian author Rolf Jacobsen’s (1907–1994) modernist poetry, originally published for adults, has been celebrated for its boldness and innovativeness. In the stage performance Snutebiller, stankelben (Snout Beetle, Crane Fly) by the Norwegian theatre group Fleece & Rouge, four poems by Jacobsen are performed on stage with children as the target audience. This article studies the realization of Jacobsen’s poetry as stage art for children. Transferring the poems from book to stage involves several obvious medial transformations due to the theatre’s specific devices. By drawing theoretical inspiration from Jonathan Culler’s theory of the lyric poem’s ritualistic and fictional qualities, we ask to what degree the performance preserves the poetic qualities in the poems for the child audience. Or rather, does the theatre frame impose dramatic effects on the poems by expanding their element of fiction? The inquiry is also inspired by Margaret Meek’s and Kornej Tjukovskij’s perspectives on the relationship between children and poetic language. There is an amount of risk involved in the task of transferring poetry to the stage. In order to succeed, the actors must embrace the expressive possibilities of the theatre, which in one sense means replacing one genre with another and thus leaving the poetry behind. However, as the analysis of Snutebiller, stankelben demonstrates, the poetic may resurrect in the scenic expression, given that the performance’s embeddedness in and obligation towards the poems are strong enough.

The Boy in the Text: Mary Barber, Her Son, and Children's Poetry in Poems on Several Occasions

The Boy in the Text: Mary Barber, Her Son, and Children’s Poetry in Poems on Several Occasions This paper reconsiders the work of Dublin poet Mary Barber, whose collection of poems appeared in 1733/34. There she acknowledges the assistance of Jonathan Swift, and frames her poetry as a pedagogical aid to her children’s education—particularly that of her eldest son, Constantine. Barber’s relationship with Swift has received much critical attention, as has her focus on her own motherhood—sometimes in critiques that suggest both of these hampered the quality and scope of her work. This paper asks readers to look at her poetry as the children’s literature she claimed it was, as well as being crossover literature aimed at more than one generation, published with the hope of the kind of success that Jonathan Swift (and John Gay, and Daniel Defoe) achieved by reaching more than one generation of readers.
