Martje Wijers and funded through a Startersbeurs grant.
What are you going to do?
Children's literature plays a crucial role in shaping societal values and cultural norms. Stories serve as a significant means through which beliefs about sociocultural phenomena, such as gender are formed in children. The project Tales and Tongues across Time: A Linguistic Exploration of a Century of Gender Representation in Children's Books in the Netherlands aims to explore how gender representation in the language of children's books has evolved over the past century (1925-2025) in the Netherlands. This study will analyze original Dutch books and translations from English and Scandinavian languages, focusing on linguistic elements like pronouns, nouns, adjectives, and verbs to understand changes in gender portrayal over time and and in the process of translation and transcreation. Applying distant reading methods, the research aims to uncover how societal values reflected in language evolve and impact cultural norms.
Tasks and responsibilities- submission of a PhD thesis within the period of appointment;
- compiling a corpus of children's literature
- conducting computational linguistic analysis on a large corpus;
- participating in meetings of the research group Corpus based and/or Computational Approaches to Language and Literature (CCALL) and possibly other relevant research groups;
