TEMA 5 VISIONES DE FUTURO & DEBATES SOBRE LA ÉTICA

REVISION FROM PREVIOUS LESSONS Class consciousness Secondary worlds Adaptations from classics Genres: family, adventures, animals, vampires, etc.

Preliminary conclusions Are the texts too difficult? How good is the students’s English level? How can we make the texts accessible? Read Collie and Slater (1983), Literature in the Language Classroom Division in slots involving several skills (group work, dramatization, previous research, semantic fields, analyze slang, etc.)

NOW… Important! Normally, I wouldn’t do this, but I’m pretty sure… THAT THESE TEXTS ARE NOT VERY FAMILIAR TO YOU! MY HOPES IS THAT YOU READ A FEW OF THEM!

Roles of Literature for Children New ideas/re-shaping and contestating the world Nostalgia from childhood Reluctance to maturity Prospects for the future Case of A Token for Children (James Janeway) and Before I Die (Jenny Downham)

OTHER ISSUES DEATH FORSAKING THE FUTURE Experimenting time!

DEATH Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Harriet Beecher Stowe Misunderstood, Montgomery Flower Before I die, Jenny Downham The Hunted, Alex Shearer

PESIMISTIC VISIONS OF THE FUTURE Silent Spring (1962) by Rachel Carson Z for Zacchariah (1973) by Robert C. O’Brien Brother in the Land (1984) by Robert Swindell Children of the Dust (1985) by Louise Lawrence The Changes ( ) by Peter Dickinson – Medieval society – Agrarian

ECO-TRAGIC FUTURES Philip Reeve (2001-6), Hungry City Chronicles. Situation after the Sixty Minutes War Scott Westerfeld (2005-7) Uglies.Control of physical specimens.Someone resists. Lloyd’s The Carbon Diaries 2017 (2010) – London is flooded, creativeness, not nihilistic

Debate question: Ethics? How much real life can we show? Should we indoctrinate our children? Should we show them the right choice? What is the right choice? Should we read books like The Lord of the Flies? Should we read books like Alan and Naomi?

Examples of agenda Filippo Marinetti: Manifesto on Children’s Literature Mao Tse-Tung: Children of the Border Areas Left Behind: The Kids (1998_) by Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye (evangelical propaganda) Chronicles of Narnia (1950-6) by Cecil S. Lewis Encouragement of independence?

Ethics of power Writing about slavery and abolitionist texts Thomas Day: Sandford and Merton Beecher Stowe: Uncle Tom’s Cabin (1851-2) Mark Twain: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Middle Passage: White Ship/Black Cargo (1995) Octavian Nothing ( ) – black boy in Boston

Fair play Beverly Cleary: Henry Huggins (1950) – dog Rudyard Kipling: Jungle Books ( ) Orson Scott: Ender’s Game (1985) – battle school

Both sides after WWII I am David (1963) by Anne Holm. Boy fleeing from concentration camp Rose Blanche (1985) by Roberto Innocenti The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (2006) by John Boyne Alan and Naomi, Myron Levoy

Moral maze Control/lack of control (e.g. Frankenstein) Laura Ruby: Good Girls (2006) cyber- bullying Barry Lyga: Boy Toy (2007) Speak (1999) by Laurie Halse Anderson – raping Elizabeth Scott (2009) Living Dead Girl Suzanne Collins, Hunger Games ( )

CONCLUSIONS We need to expand the range of texts Teaching The Three Little Pigs only is not productive… and it becomes boring! It doesn’t matter how modern new versions and re-writings are… We need new stories! Language problem? New stories / Creative Writing

CHALLENGE OF THE MONTH Write an “ethically challenging” story or a futuristic one. Send it to me to:
