Gryphon Lecture: Rethinking the Influence of Religion and Religious Identity in Contemporary US Children's Literature. A lecture by Professor Anastasia Ulanowicz. This talk centers on middle-grade novels produced during the oft-neglected Second Golden Age of children's literature (1950-1980), which demonstrate complex engagements with religious identity and practice.
