(AP) Mother Goose, the author, was a village busy body and a common sense philosopher who lived in a religious age, says a university professor. Wilson Curren Snipes, writing in a children's literature journal published here, says that from a biographical perspective, Mother Goose "knew many intimate details of the life of her community, based on Mrs. Goose's detailed knowledge of Jack Horner, Mrs.

McShuttle, Doctor Foster, Jack and Mrs. Sprat, Old Mother Hubbard and Simple Simon." Snipes is head of the English department at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. His article is in the journal "Children's Literature, The Great Excluded," published by the Children's Literature Association. The journal is edited by Francelia Butler, a member of the University of Connecticut English department. Snipes says Mrs.

1 Goose "Liked children. a special interest in animals. followed some questionable eating habits "pease porridge nine days old." Viewing the authoress through the socio-cultural looking glass Snipes says the characters of her age included bakers, joiners to make coffins, fishmongers, tailors, cobblers and a monarch, "Old King Cole." "Mrs. Goose lived in a religious age. 'Little Fred always said his prayers when he went to' In 'Matthew, Mark, Luke and John' we hear Mrs.

Goose saying 'Bless and bed I lie To the humanist critic, the question is what are the ethical qualities to be found in Mrs. Goose's work? She "made clear the importance of moral responsibilities Little Boy tending his sheep, Tom Piper's son was beaten for stealing a oig, Taggy who stole a piece of beef was beaten on the head and Little Johnny Stout who put pussy in the well was considered a naughty boy." To the new, or formalist critic, says Snipes, the question involves the work itself. Mrs. Goose's works are playful, imaginative, musical, humorous, symbolic and paradoxical, he writes. He says that to the psychoanalytic critic's eye, one of the most interesting Mother Goose poems is the familiar "One, two, buckle my shoe He says the poem reveals values parents teach girls as they grow up but also poses a problem to some editors.

The last line reads "nineteen, my stomach's empty." In context with previous lines courting, kissing and waiting the stomach being empty does not make sense, Snipes writes. "I am prone to think the editor has taken privilege with Mrs. Goose's verses. It may be that the House Un-American Activities Committee will investigate both sides of the mat-' ter, or the Illinois American Legion will attack Mother Goose for indecency," he says. Professor Butler, in the introduction to the journal, notes that there is an increasing academic interest in children's literature, a subject which many people used to snub.

"Now with lowered enrollments in colleges throughout the countgr and the urgent need to pay attention to student interest, scholars who have hitherto stuck their noses up at children's literature are having their noses forcibly stuck into it," she says.
