Abstract: In this month’s MJ Studies Today column, Kerry Hennigan looks at Michael Jackson’s art and beliefs about childhood in the context of the work of some of the Romantic poets and authors from the Golden Age of children’s literature.  She suggests that considering Jackson’s work as a modern expression of the same Romantic tradition can lead to better understanding of his creative vision.
