Children's Television in Czechoslovakia

Czechoslovakian television is twenty years old. Our telecasts for children are the same age. They have received high marks from both the Czechoslovakian public and foreign specialists. The goal of children's television in the Czechoslovakian Socialist Republic is the ethical and aesthetic education of young viewers. From its very inception, television decided to become an active helper of the family and the school, and invited the best children's writers, directors, and playwrights to participate.

Current Trends in Children's Literature

OVER SEVENTY children's librarians, teachers, publishers, writers and illustrators attended the first course organized by the School of Librarianship as part of the Loughborough College of Education annual summer school. The course was truly international in scope and much of the credit for its success must go to the way in which our visitors from the continent entered so enthusiastically into discussions, answered questions, delivered formal lectures which were both informative and entertaining, all in what was for them a foreign tongue. Their modest apologies for any gaps in their knowledge of the English language proved entirely unnecessary and put the native English‐speaking members of the audience to shame when they considered how badly they would have fared in a similar situation.

A Study Of Some Influencing Factors Upon And The Nature Of Young Children’S Written Language

After having made a study of children's needs in spelling, the writer was aware of the need for teachers to know the nature of children's writings and the factors influencing their written composi tions. The interest was in finding the cause for the seeming need to escape for some children when they were asked to write the language lesson: The tendency to delay,to move about, and to engage in conversation indicated a need for release from re straints that were not obvious within the situation.

Public-political development conditions for children's literature in Lithuanian realism at the beginning of the twentieth century

The article analyzes the two directions of Lithuania ideological approaches to children's reading at the beginning of the 20th century regarding the Marxist-Leninist doctrine of the two cultures in every national cultural spirit. The clerical bourgeoisie, who had followed the czarist regime, promoted religiosity, blind obedience to the czar, and ruling class reading books, and they published clerical children's literature. The liberal bourgeoisie, frightened by the growth of the revolutionary movement, was against a revolution. The liberal bourgeoisie were joined by some democrats and progressive intellectuals who were concerned with public education, actively participated in the country's cultural life, and worked for the liberal press. G. Petkevičiūtė-Bitė, P. Mašiotas, J. Jablonskis, K. Vairas-Račkauskas, K. Skabeika, and others wrote about the education of children and children's literature. Revolutionary Social Democrats (V. Mickevičius-Kapsukas, Z. Aleksa-Angarietis, etc.) demanded abolition of child labor, the introduction of universal children's education, and education's democratization. After an analysis of the social and political situation in the beginning of 20th century Lithuania, the article concluded that the leading Lithuanian authors depicting the tragic situation of children in the capitalist political system were influenced by the national liberation and social fight of the nation. J. Biliūnas, Žemaitė, Lazdynų Pelėda, L. Didžiulienė-Žmona, K. Jasiukaitis, V. Mickevičius-Kapsukas, J. Šepetys, J. Janonis, K. Stiklius, K. Lekeckas, and others portrayed Children's life as oppressed and exploited by the bourgeoisie. Progressive ideas were reflected in M. Pečkauskaitė's Šatrijos Ragana (Witch's) story "The Light" and in the best stories of K. Sakalausko-Vanagėlis, P. Mašiotas M. Grigonis for children. A religious world view established itself in Lithuanian literature as, reflected in some moments of the class struggle at the beginning of 20th century. It was the beginning of a fierce fight with reactionary children's writers and teachers who sought to tear away the children from the knowledge of the social realities of life, to educate them in the spirit of clericalism, apolitically, obedient to the bourgeoisie. Realistic Lithuanian children's literature development conditions are analyzed on the basis of archival documents and other sources from the beginning of the 20th century.

Constancio Vigil, Writer of Children's Stories

T WOULD be easy to call the life of Vigil a sort of fairy story in itself with its sad moments transformed by spiritual magic into glad triumphs. One night as he lay in his cradle, a bullet meant for his father, editor of a country sheet known as La Ley, buried itself in the wood just over his head. He lost his mother when he was only a child, and his father when he was in his 'teens. Yet he forged all this misfortune into a great motive for overcoming obstacles and spreading good all about him. His story might be aptly chosen for a volume in the Horatio Alger series, with its sure formula of a poor boy facing fate, working hard, and achieving honor and fortune. But this would be a very superficial rendering of a great career whose real glory consists in a glowing spirituality and an immense love of children.'
