This is such a fantastic post. Thank you for this Stefano.
This is the kind of comparative visual narrative study I am interested in discovering through advancing computer vision and natural language processing. Basically, we can achieve automated image comparisons to find unlike areas across say – children’s books first published then reprinted since the 1950s. I guarantee there is a body of malleable literature that changes in parallel to societal norms of each decade.
That’s pretty interesting that they changed the book in order to stay culturally relevant (and keep selling books). I wonder if this is a popular trend across children’s books from the 1950s that are still sold today.
