Focusing on childhood studies, Anja Mÿller explores the diverse concepts of childhood as represented in eighteenth-century periodicals and satirical prints. By analyzing the interplay between text and image, she reveals how these media contributed to the understanding of childhood before the 1790s, ultimately challenging the prevailing notion that the concept of childhood originated solely in late eighteenth-century England.
