關於這本電子書

Carlo Collodi's "Pinocchio" is a seminal work in children's literature that intricately weaves adventure, morality, and the complexities of human experience into the tale of a wooden puppet who dreams of becoming a real boy. Written in a vibrant, whimsical style, the novel employs rich allegory and humor, illustrating the struggles between good and evil as Pinocchio navigates a world filled with temptation and deception. This classic narrative, first serialized in 1881, reflects the cultural and social dynamics of late 19th-century Italy, highlighting the importance of education, familial bonds, and ethical conduct in an era grappling with modernization and moral ambiguity. Collodi, born Carlo Lorenzini in 1826, was a political satirist and journalist before transitioning into children's literature, influenced by his own childhood experiences and the Italian folklore of his time. His insights into human nature, shaped by his liberal ideals and interest in social issues, permeate the narrative of "Pinocchio," making it much more than a simple story for children—it serves as a critique of societal norms and a poignant exploration of identity and growth. This timeless tale is recommended for readers of all ages, as it transcends generational boundaries, offering valuable lessons wrapped in enchantment. "Pinocchio" invites readers to ponder the nature of truth and transformation, making it an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the human condition through the lens of a child's adventure.

關於作者

Carlo Collodi, born Carlo Lorenzini on November 24, 1826, in Florence, Italy, was a prolific writer and journalist best known for his world-renowned children's classic, 'The Adventures of Pinocchio' (1883). Collodi took his pen name from the village of his mother's birth, reflecting his deep connection to his Italian heritage. Before creating his enduring masterwork, Collodi wrote a variety of texts, including translations of French fairy tales and several Italian-language texts under different pseudonyms. His foray into children's literature coincided with the unification of Italy, a time of great cultural and educational reform. 'Pinocchio' initially appeared as a serial between 1881 and 1883 and was later compiled into a single book which has since become one of the most translated non-religious books in the world. The story, often considered a metaphor for moral and social development, follows the misadventures of its titular wooden puppet, who yearns to become a real boy. Collodi's narrative style blends elements of satire, allegory and comedy, creating a rich tapestry that appeals to both children and adults. The depth and imagination of Collodi's work have solidified his standing in the Western literary canon, and his influence persists in various adaptations of Pinocchio in literature, theatre, and film. Collodi died on October 26, 1890, in Florence, but his legacy endures through the timeless charm and moral lessons encapsulated in the wooden fibers of Pinocchio.
