The editors of this volume teach and research children's literature within the Literature Department at the University of Antwerp, Belgium. Vanessa Joosen specializes in the field of modern fairy-tale adaptations and theoretical approaches to the Grimm tales (such as feminism, psychoanalysis, Marxism). Translation studies and tendencies within contemporary Dutch and British children's literature equally belong to her research interests. Katrien Vloeberghs investigates images of childhood in twentieth-century literary and philosophical discourses. Her current work focuses on the representation of the Holocaust in childhood narratives and children's literature.
