Le avventure di Pinocchio. Storia di un burattino è un romanzo scritto da Carlo Collodi (pseudonimo dello scrittore Carlo Lorenzini) a Firenze nel 1881 e pubblicato nel 1883 dalla Libreria Editrice Felice Paggi con le illustrazioni di Enrico Mazzanti. Il romanzo ha come protagonista Pinocchio, che l'autore chiama impropriamente burattino, pur essendo morfologicamente più simile a una marionetta al centro di celeberrime avventure. Nelle intenzioni di Carlo Collodi pare non vi fosse quella di creare un racconto per l'infanzia: nella prima versione, infatti, il burattino moriva impiccato a causa dei suoi innumerevoli errori. Solo nelle versioni successive, pubblicate a puntate su un quotidiano, la storia venne prolungata anche dopo la sequenza dell'impiccagione, giungendo al classico finale che oggi si conosce, con il burattino che assume le fattezze di un ragazzo in carne ed ossa (Aonia edizioni).

A revelatory new edition of the most translated Italian book in the world-soon to be *two* major motion pictures: a Netflix animated version co-directed and co-written by Guillermo del Toro and voiced by Ewan McGregor, Cate Blanchett, and Tilda Swinton, and a Disney Plus live-action version directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Tom Hanks, Cynthia Erivo, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Lorraine Bracco, and Keegan-Michael KeyA Penguin ClassicCarved from a piece of wood by the old carpenter Geppetto, the puppet Pinocchio comes to life and immediately starts to misbehave. But while this beloved character has achieved literary immortality, the novel has been widely misunderstood. Pinocchio has a penchant for lying, to be sure, but it's when he avoids going to school that he repeatedly gets into trouble. The Adventures of Pinocchio is thus not a cautionary tale about lying but an unusually timely fable for our increasingly authoritarian times-a story about the importance of education and of preventing others from pulling our strings.This effervescent new translation captures the antic spirit that makes the mischievous, egotistical, and easily distracted Pinocchio a late nineteenth-century prototype for the likes of Bart Simpson. Featuring copious annotations informed by the translators' deep knowledge of Italy, it reveals the novel to be not only a subversively entertaining children's book but also a sophisticated satire reflecting the author's concern for the social inequality of his time and his belief that duty to others is at the core of our humanity.Story Locale: Italy

The astonishing tale of how the old woodcarver Geppetto made a disobedient puppet boy that could talk, dance and turn somersaults has been a much-loved story since it was first written more than 130 years ago. "e;The Adventures of Pinocchio"e; first appeared in 1881 as a series in a children's newspaper. Since then, readers young and old have delighted in Collodi's fantastic fairy-tale world, in which anything can happen and excitement waits round every corner. The exuberant young scamp Pinocchio ignores the advice of his kindly father and sets off into the world in search of adventure. Along the way he encounters many remarkable characters - including the nefarious Fox and Cat, a wise-talking cricket and a beautiful azure-haired fairy - and lurches from one predicament to another. Happily, by the end of the book, this wilful wooden hero finally learns his lesson and obtains his heart's desire - becoming a real boy. In this handsome new edition, award-winning illustrator Robert Ingpen has captured the rascally Pinocchio and his extraordinary escapades as never before, breathing new excitement into this enchanting classic.

Features the adventures of a mischievous puppet without strings, Pinocchio. This book discusses 'Pinocchio' in the contexts of the folk tale and the literary fairy tale, showing how Collodi subverts these traditions and raising questions about how we 'civilise' children in uncivilised times.

Collodi wrote this story immediately after Pinocchio, and the little monkey's adventures present clear similarities, both in terms of themes and characters, with his more celebrated masterpiece. This rediscovered gem of Italian literature is here adapted and expanded by Alessandro Gallenzi and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.

From the moment Geppetto the wood carver shapes a puppet that can walk and talk, this wildly inventive fantasy takes Pinocchio through countless adventures, in which his nose grows whenever he lies, he narrowly avoids death on a number of occasions, he is turned into a donkey, and is swallowed by a dogfish, before he finally achieves true happiness. Pinocchio is not in any sense sentimental nor is it a morally improving tale. On the contrary, Pinocchio is one of the great subversives of literature, a chaotic genius driven on at the mercy of his desires, in short, a renegade. Indeed he is one of the great inventions of modern literature. The novel merges the picaresque hero with elements of street theatre, of folk and fairy tales into a work that is at once adventure, satire, and a powerful enchantment. The book is full of memorable characters, is narrated with the fluid but inevitable logic of a dream, and is an endlessly fascinating work. Although originally directed at Italian children in the generation following the risorgimento, the adult reader will recognize in the Pinocchio layers of social and political satire. This is the first time that it has appeared in Cornish.

This book has been deemed as a classic and has stood the test of time. The book has been considered by academicians and scholars of great significance and value to literature. This forms a part of the knowledge base for future generations.

Zur Inhalt: Eines Tages findet Tischlermeister Antonio, der wegen seiner roten Nase "Meister Kirsche" genannt wird, ein Holzscheit, das zu sprechen anfängt, als er es bearbeiten will. Da ihm die Sache nicht geheuer ist, schenkt er es seinem Freund, dem Holzschnitzer Geppetto. Geppetto ist von dem Holzklotz begeistert und beginnt sogleich mit dem Schnitzen einer Holzpuppe, die er nach getaner Arbeit Pinocchio tauft. Zu Geppettos Erstaunen erwacht die Puppe zum Leben und reißt ihrem Schöpfer aus. Beim Versuch, Pinocchio wieder einzufangen, landet Geppetto sogar im Gefängnis, kommt dann aber wieder frei und findet Pinocchio ausgehungert und reumütig in seinem Haus. Dieser verspricht, in Zukunft artig zu sein und zur Schule zu gehen. Trotz eisiger Kälte verkauft Geppetto seine einzige Jacke, um Pinocchio eine Fibel zu kaufen. Carlo Collodi (1826-1890) war ein italienischer Schriftsteller und Journalist. Er ist der Autor des weltberühmten Romans Die Abenteuer des Pinocchio.
