Produktbeschreibung
In "Pinocchio," Carlo Collodi crafts a timeless tale that navigates the complexities of morality, childhood, and the quest for identity. The story unfolds through the adventures of a wooden puppet who yearns to become a real boy, employing vibrant characters and a rich allegorical framework. Collodi's narrative style, marked by an engaging blend of humor, pathos, and moral instruction, reflects the socio-cultural landscape of 19th-century Italy, where the burgeoning middle class grappled with evolving ideas about childhood and education. Collodi's work resonates with various literary movements, from fairy tales to realist literature, illuminating the struggle between innocence and experience in a rapidly changing world. Carlo Collodi, born Carlo Lorenzini in 1826, was a journalist and writer whose early experiences in the tumultuous Italian states greatly influenced his perspectives on education, social values, and the importance of personal growth. His own unconventional childhood and fascination with puppetry gave rise to "Pinocchio," which he originally serialized in 1881, before expanding it into a beloved book that reflects his critical views on society and the human experience. Collodi's ability to weave intricate lessons into a simple narrative is a testament to his literary genius. This edition of "Pinocchio" is a must-read for both children and adults, offering profound insights wrapped in an enchanting story. Readers will find themselves drawn into the whimsical yet cautionary world of Pinocchio, making it a perfect addition to any literary collection. Its exploration of the universal themes of honesty, integrity, and self-discovery remains relevant today, encouraging readers to reflect on their moral journey and the choices that define their lives.
Autorenporträt
Carlo Lorenzini (1826-1890), better known by the pen name Carlo Collodi, was an Italian author, humorist, and journalist, widely known for his fairy tale novel The Adventures of Pinocchio. During the Italian Wars of Independence in 1848 and 1860 Collodi served as a volunteer with the Tuscan army. His active interest in political matters may be seen in his earliest literary works as well as in the founding of the satirical newspaper. During this period he composed various satirical sketches and stories. Collodi became disenchanted with Italian politics afterward so he turned to children's literature and his first works involved translating French fairy tales into Italian. He became fascinated by the idea of using an amiable, rascally character as a means of expressing his own convictions through allegory. In 1880 he began writing Storia di un burattino (Story of a Marionette) which became Pinocchio.
