Young Adult literature, from The Outsiders to Harry Potter, has helped shape the cultural landscape for adolescents perhaps more than any other form of consumable media in the twentieth and twenty-first century. With the rise of mega blockbuster films based on these books in recent years, the young adult genre is being co-opted by curious adult readers and by Hollywood producers. However, while the genre may be getting more readers than ever before, Young Adult literature remains exclusionary and problematic: few titles feature historically marginalized individuals, the books present heteronormative perspectives, and gender stereotypes continue to persist. Taking a critical approach, Young Adult Literature: Challenging Genres offers educators, youth librarians, and students a set of strategies for unpacking, challenging, and transforming the assumptions of some of the genre's most popular titles. Pushing the genre forward, Antero Garcia builds on his experiences as a former high school teacher to offer strategies for integrating Young Adult literature in a contemporary critical pedagogy through the use of participatory media.

Les écrivains pour la jeunesse sont-ils des auteurs à part entière, ainsi que certains d'entre eux le réclament publiquement ? Près de quarante-cinq ans après les déclarations de R. Barthes sur « la mort de l'auteur », une telle revendication trouve, bien sûr, son origine dans le décalage entre la légitimité encore fluctuante de ce secteur de l'édition et son dynamisme reconnu. Mais l'affirmation naît peut-être aussi d'un retour progressif de l'auteur dans la réflexion théorique et critique, ou bien encore de sa présence diversifiée dans les pratiques scolaires de lecture de la littérature. S'interrogeant sur la situation complexe d'aujourd'hui, les quinze contributeurs de l'ouvrage questionnent la notion d'auteur pour la jeunesse dans différentes directions, à partir des approches variées qui ont construit la réflexion sur l'auctorialité. Pour ce faire, ils mettent en pleine lumière romans et albums, de C. Grenier, S. Morgenstern, B. Poncelet, G. Lemoine, Sara et quelques autres contemporains. Pour esquisser une mise en perspective historique, ils se tournent aussi du côté d'Homère, P.-J. Hetzel, P. Berna, ainsi que des très récents N. Schneegans et D. Pennac. De l'édition à l'école, certaines pratiques actuelles sont ainsi sondées avec précision. Même si elle ne paraît pas appelée à prendre la première place, au détriment des autres instances de la littérature, il semble bien que la notion d'auteur pour la jeunesse présente un intérêt certain dans les activités de lecture littéraire. L'ouvrage suggère ainsi une clarification des rôles que l'on peut faire jouer à cette figure de premier plan.

At a time when the Mediterranean has rediscovered its own vitality, seven academics from the fields of education and literature look at how fictions set in the region narrate the role of the teacher from the point of view of the students and from that of the teachers themselves. While an increasingly technocratic approach to the performance of teachers focuses on competences, these often highly subjective narratives tell stories of practitioners who refuse to fit into the mould imposed on them by patriarchy or the educational institutions. The writers dealt with in this volume are aware that teachers cannot be solely defined in terms of what they are expected to do within schools and classrooms. This reductively conceives them as simply needing the skills to teach without having the ability to contextualise their teaching within wider historical, social and cultural realities. With its migration flows and intricate web of social and cultural politics, the Mediterranean of the 21st century is an ideal space for reflections on the role of the teacher in an ever-changing society.
