Trzydzieści lat nieobecności. Chorwacka książka dla dzieci w Polsce (1990—2020)
Thirty Years of Absence. Croatian Children’s Books in Poland (1990—2020)

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to investigate how the changes that have taken place in the children’s book market in Poland over the last thirty years have influenced the selection of children’s books by Croatian authors that have been translated and published in Poland as well as their reception. Thanks to the conducted analyses, it will be possible to estimate the size and character of Croatian children’s literature in Poland in the analysed period. My focus will be primarily on the mechanics of book selection — publishers’ motivation, their decisions and the consequences of their choices. I will analyse the mechanisms of selecting texts for translation by Polish publishers and their consequences on the basis of Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of literary field.
