Acerca deste libro electrónico

Pinocchio is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the children's novel by the Italian writer C. Collodi. Carved by a woodcarver named Geppetto in a small Italian village, he was created as a wooden puppet, but dreamed of becoming a real boy. He has also been used as a character who is prone to telling lies and fabricating stories for various reasons. The story has appeared in many adaptations in other mediums. Pinocchio has been called an icon of modern culture, and one of the most reimagined characters in the pantheon of children's literature. (Excerpt from Wikipedia)

Acerca do autor

Carlo Collodi, born Carlo Lorenzini on November 24, 1826, in Florence, Italy, was a pioneering figure in Italian literature whose work transcended the boundaries of children's fiction to leave an indelible mark on global culture. Initially pursuing a career in journalism, Collodi's sharp wit and incisive social commentary found a home in satirical newspapers, where he critiqued the political landscape of a newly unified Italy. His early works, including "Il Lampione" and "La Scaramuccia," reflect his keen interest in political reform and social justice, themes that would permeate his later writings.Collodi's literary journey took a significant turn when he began writing for children, a decision that would cement his legacy. His stories, often imbued with moral lessons and fantastical elements, were revolutionary in their approach to blending entertainment with education. Collodi's ability to weave complex human emotions and ethical dilemmas into seemingly simple narratives set him apart from his contemporaries and influenced a generation of writers who sought to elevate children's literature to new artistic heights.Not without controversy, Collodi's works occasionally sparked debates over their dark undertones and candid portrayal of societal flaws. Yet, it is precisely this unflinching honesty that has endeared him to readers across generations. His influence extends beyond literature, inspiring adaptations in various media, from theater to film, and continuing to resonate in contemporary discussions about the role of morality and imagination in storytelling.Carlo Collodi passed away on October 26, 1890, but his legacy endures, a testament to his visionary contributions to literature and his unwavering commitment to exploring the human condition through the eyes of the young and the young at heart.
