Abstract
Textual criticism two simple words that present a host of challenges.
The topic immediately introduces the problems of relationship and
emphasis. What arcane relationship connects these two words? Does
textual criticism mean literary criticism? What roles does critical theory
play in the practice, process, and products of criticism? And what roles
does it play in the evaluation of children's books? Textual comes before
criticism, so does focus fall on the text? Or, since textual modifies
criticism, perhaps criticism should ground the discussion.
