Starting in the 18th century, literary youth publications aimed to convey moral and civic teachings to a specific audience ; they gradually gained a fixed frequency. This paper focuses on the works of Arnaud Berquin and Louis-François Jauffret, both at the origin of several series, and both noteworthy for crossing borders. They allowed the translation and adaptation of the then flourishing European youth literature. These publications, mixing didactic discourse and the representation of their readership, have a lasting influence on the production of literature intended for a young audience.
