ABSTRACT One of the hallmarks of research on childhood in the past is inclusive, interdisciplinary thinking. This reliance on interdisciplinarity to produce robust scholarship speaks, in part, to the ways we think about children and childhood today, as simultaneously embodied, material, cognitive, intersectional, relational, and developmental. Scholars working and connecting across disciplinary boundaries are also a product of the relatively recent emergence of childhood as an area of scholarly interest and the marginalization of the topic in traditional disciplinary silos. This paper takes a unique approach to addressing the interdisciplinary nature of scholarship on children and childhood in the past. Four scholars have produced reflective essays: a theatre historian, an art historian, an archaeologist/teaching professional, and a bioarchaeologist, which offer perspectives and insights into the importance of interdisciplinary thinking in their own work, and by extension in their larger fields of disciplinary practice.

对以往童年研究中跨学科的反思

摘要 过去童年研究的标志之一是包容性、跨学科的思维。这种对跨学科的依赖来产生强大的学术，部分说明了我们今天思考儿童和童年的方式，它们同时体现在物质、认知、交叉、关系和发展方面。跨学科界限工作和联系的学者也是相对最近出现的儿童作为学术兴趣领域以及传统学科孤岛中该主题边缘化的产物。本文采用独特的方法来解决过去儿童和儿童奖学金的跨学科性质。四位学者发表了反思性文章：戏剧史学家、艺术史学家、考古学家/教学专家、
