Hayao Miyazaki has had a lifelong interest in British children\u2019s literature, and an influential role in popularising it in Japan, notably through the animations he created at Studio Ghibli. In this talk I will discuss some aspects of that contribution, and that of directors whom Miyazaki directly influenced, especially his protog\u00e9, Hiromasa Yonebayashi. But I will also ask two questions: why does Hayao Miyazaki, who loves British children\u2019s books and has adapted several, never used Britain as a setting? And what are the consequence of taking a story from one setting and medium and putting it into another?<\/p>\n

Catherine Butler<\/strong> is Reader in English Literature at Cardiff University.

Her latest book, British Children\u2019s Literature in Japanese Culture: Wonderlands and Looking-Glasses<\/em>, is due to be published by Bloomsbury in 2023. She has also published six novels for children and teenagers. Catherine is Editor-in-Chief of Children\u2019s Literature in Education<\/em>.<\/p>\n
