Abstract

I testi destinati ai bambini hanno sempre giocato un ruolo decisivo nella formazione delle menti più giovani, essendo spesso utilizzati come rinforzo per la propaganda orientata agli adulti. La Confederazione, nel processo di costruzione di una nuova identità nazionale, era a conoscenza di questo potere di influenza. Il presente lavoro analizza quali idee utilizzate dalla propaganda della Confederazione apparvero in testi indirizzati ai bambini, indicando quali sono state destinati alla formazione di futuri cittadini e come la trasmissione di queste idee sia stata utilizzata come rinforzo di discorsi propagandistici della Confederazione. Il presente lavoro osserva in quali situazioni entrambi i discorsi, quello pensato per i bambni e quello pensato per gli adulti, seguirono una direttrice simile (l’esaltazione patriottica della nazione) e in quali si produsse una certa rottura (difesa della schiavitù).
