This book is the result of the Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya (UVic-UCC) organising the Second International Conference entitled: “Storytelling Revisited: Music, Gender, Language and Cinema in Children’s Literature”, held in Vic (Barcelona), on 27 November 2019. This Conference provided a forum for teachers, students and researchers to go deeper into the relationship between music, gender, language and cinema in children’s literature within the field of EFL teaching for Early Years and Primary Education. It was an interdisciplinary conference organised by the three research groups GRELL, GETLIHC and TEXLICO at the Faculty of Education Translation and Human Sciences.
This academic meeting revolved around the study of music and narrative structures applied to the classroom. Our overearching goal was to stimulate discussion and to highlight the importance of establishing criteria regarding storytelling in a variety of fields and the choice of music and storytelling for classroom work, in the EFL classroom.
