Elleman, Barbara (1987). Current trends in Literature for children. V35 n3 p413-26 Winter 1987.
The author said that in the future study of children’s literature, the years between 1960 and 1985
will prove significant because of two major, multifaceted influences that have expanded and revolutionized
the field of children’s books; (1) changes in the world of children’s publishing; and (2) changes in the
sociopolitical climate of the country. She mentioned that debate may range over the positive or negative
aspects in each area, but there can be little argument over the impact. From 1918- generally earmarked as
the beginning in the United States- throughout the late 1950s, children’s books enjoyed a relatively stable
period characterized by predictable plots, essential decency, and restrained good fun. It has been said that
literature for children mirrors society- i.e., reflecting the culture of the time and the sociopolitical climate of
the country underwent upheaval. These events triggered changes in the children’s book field that continue
to evolve today. When the first editorial departments were formed prior to 1920 specifically to publish
children’s books, the editors tried to spearhead these new ventures had library and educational
background.
Gürova, Ercan. "HOW RECENT TRENDS SHAPE ENGLISH LITERATURE."

This paper aims to study and illustrate how recent trends such as the ebook technology,
digital media, blogging and other forms of social networking play a significant role in English literature
today. These trends are useful in promoting the exchange of ideas and access to vital information that
assists the analysis of literary works. Digital Media also proves to be important in improving the access and
academic analysis of English literature. Literary works can be reviewed, and individuals may discuss
various issues through social media. Studies that would previously take much time and work are simplified
by increased access to literary works in the form of ebooks and audio versions of novels and stories.
Moreover, research articles and reviews are availed in various blogs that a scholar may access. However
some thinkers feel that social media, in particular, is inhibiting the development of art and literature.
Various disadvantages are associated with modern technology regarding the decrease in quality of literary
works.

And 21st century. In International Interdisciplinary Conference on Science Technology
Engineering Management Pharmacy and Humanities, Singapore, 22nd±23rd April.
The authors of this paper discuss the emerging trends in the different ages and periods in English
Literature, tracing from the Renaissance Age up to the Contemporary one, and giving much emphasis on
the existing trends in the 20 th and 21st century. They also point out some of the most eminent literary works
of these trends in that particular Age which have their own distinctive characteristics. Literature today and in
recent years foregrounds an aesthetic shift which is more transitional; experimental, more anxious, more
liberal and self-interrogating. Some of these trends presented by the authors include popular fiction or
genre fiction and cyber or digital literature. This paper is distinctive in discussing these multiple trends.
Some are like adaptations of traditional movements and techniques while others are the outcome of
science and technology. Hence, these ages depict modern literature through social/political/religious
milieus with different genres of poetry, novel and drama.

This eclectic text identifies topics that are currently hot in literature, suggesting ways to link trends
in scholarship to classroom instruction. Also, as a whole, the text invests in interdisciplinary approaches to
teaching literature. Some of the topics explored in the part one of the text include: queering Chaucer,
notions of authorship and publishing culture among Grub Street writers of the 18th century, transforming
student knowledge of the canon or "desegregating the syllabus," and teaching poetry in a prose culture.
Highlights of part two of Teaching Literature include chapter 8, which suggests alternatives to traditional
writing assignments, and chapter 12, which addresses the benefits and obstacles of teaching literature
online. In sum, this text is a useful tool for new professors of literature and professors of literature who
teach survey courses and are interested in current approaches to an array of literary periods.
