Illuminating Childhood: Portraits in Fiction, Film, & Drama

Langbeschreibung
While literature and the arts are rarely considered primary sources for knowledge about human motivation and behaviour, people read novels, attend movies, watch television, and go to the theatre not solely to be entertained but also to learn about one another and about themselves. This title formalises this quest for psychological knowledge in the domain of the arts.
Ellen Handler Spitz holds the Honors College Professorship of Visual Arts at the University of Maryland. She is the author of a number of books on art, psychology, and imagery, including The Brightening Glance: Imagination and Childhood.
