Abstract

Abstract:Given the widespread expectation that children's war literature should be morally instructive, it is not surprising that epiphanies are a regular plot device used in children's picturebooks. This article will analyze four children's picturebooks about the 1914 Christmas Truce that are framed by epiphanic experiences: Shooting at the Stars: The Christmas Truce of 1914 (Hendrix; 2014), And the Soldiers Sang (Lewis; 2011), The Christmas Truce (Duffy; 2014), and The Christmas Truce: The Place Where Peace Was Found (Robinson; 2014).

儿童图画书，顿悟和1914年圣诞休战

摘要：鉴于人们普遍认为儿童战争文学应该具有道德教育意义，顿悟是儿童绘本中常用的情节手段也就不足为奇了。本文将分析四本关于1914年圣诞休战的儿童绘本，它们都是由顿悟的经历构成的：《射向星星：1914年圣诞停战》（Hendrix；2014）、《与士兵桑》（Lewis；2011）、《圣诞休战》（Duffy；2014）和《圣诞休战：和平之地》（Robinson；2014）。
