Plant-Based Diets in Children’s Accounts, or on Expanding The Cultural History of Veganism

Marzena Kubisz Logo ORCID

Abstract

Publications on the cultural history of veganism, insightful and inclusive as they are, give the impression that it has been experienced and narrated by adults only and that children have had no part in it. The article challenges this assumption by postulating to include children’s accounts in the cultural history of meatless diets. Given the importance of first-person narratives for analyzing the processes of identity formation, the author proposes to delineate and undergo a detailed reading of the repository of vegan autobiographies and introduce children’s voices into it. Undertaking a study of the historical dimension of children’s first-person narratives, the author looks at the 19th-century vegetarian periodicals for children and brings to light their voices and experiences.
