Objectives and Contextualisation
The main objective of this module is to know the diversity of ways in which Children's and Young People's Literature materializes.
As part of these aproach, we will analyze the function of the image in literary productions, especially those where the interest of the authors focuses on formal materialization.
We will also reflect on the evolution of the classics and poetry towards new forms with the purpose of expressing new contents.
