Children’s and youth telenovelas: essays on the poetics of works by Íris Abravanel

João Paulo Hergesel (author)

Preface: Caroline Luvizotto

This book is the result of several years of research on children’s and youth telenovelas, which began during my doctoral studies and with previously disseminated productions in the form of conference papers, scientific articles, and book chapters, but always in the Portuguese language. More than a compilation of these materials, the purpose of this book is to rescue the presented concepts, while updating them, and reconsidering the analyses conducted by intersecting them. It also aims to contribute to the internationalization of the research by presenting it in a new language (English), going beyond the limits of the Portuguese-speaking world.
