Marshall coins the term \"the drinking curriculum\" to describe how a paradoxical set of cultural lessons about childhood are fueled by adult anxieties and preoccupations. By analyzing popular and widely accessible texts in visual culture--temperance tracts, cartoons, film, advertise-ments, and public-service announcements--Marshall demonstrates how youth are targets of mixed messages about intoxication. Those messages range from the overtly violent to the humorous, the moralistic to the profane. Offering a critical and, at times, irreverent analysis of dominant protec-tionist paradigms that sanctify childhood as implicitly innocent, \u003ci\u003eThe Drinking Curriculum \u003c\/i\u003ecenters the graphic narratives our culture uses to teach about alcohol, the roots of these pictorial tales in the nineteenth century, and the discursive hangover we nurse into the twenty-first.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElizabeth Marshall \u003c\/b\u003eis an associate professor at Simon Fraser University, where she teaches courses on children's literature, childhood, and popular culture.
