This volume traces twentieth-century migrations of the child-savage analogy from colonial into postcolonial discourse across a wide range of old and new media, including films, textbooks, children's literature, periodicals, comic strips, children's radio, toys, and digital games. In particular, the collection takes up the important questions of how the trope of the child savage is fleshed out from one medium to another and what cultural, social, and political functions it fulfills on diverse occasions.
