Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principesse, eroi, gnomi, villaggi popolati da bravi uomini che cercano di condurre tranquillamente la loro vita, animali che si trasformano... Si dipanano tra questi personaggi e molti altri, e tra luoghi più o meno inventati, le fiabe dell’autrice. Tutte delicate, gentili, dolci, ben delineate e narrate. Lo stile è molto semplice e fiabesco, tipico dei libri per bambini. A cui, infatti, è dedicata l’opera. Che però, ad un’attenta lettura da parte dei genitori, può trovare spunti di riflessione anche per i più grandi, capaci di cogliere tra le righe anche insegnamenti ad un livello più colto. La stessa brevità dei racconti rende l’intera opera godibile e leggibile anche tutta d’un fiato. Le fiabe si susseguono sciolte e lineari, il libro si lascia leggere piacevolmente, rappresentando una buona lettura per bambini sia per dargli la buona notte, ed allietare così i loro sonni, sia come passatempo pomeridiano, senz’altro di un livello culturale migliore di quanto spesso offrano televisione o Internet. Le emozioni raccontate sono ovviamente semplici, chiare, espresse in forma libera e senza particolari giochi letterari. Lo stile fiabesco è rispettato in pieno, a partire dai canovacci delle storie fino ai loro personaggi. Per questo chi legge le fiabe si ritrova piacevolmente coinvolto in mondi paralleli, in cui la fantasia è libera di spaziare

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A representative selection of tales from the Italian fairy-tale tradition, translated into English. This comprehensive collection of Italian tales in English encourages a revisitation of the fairy-tale canon in light of some of the most fascinating material that has often been excluded from it. In the United States, we tend to associate fairy tales with children and are most familiar with the tales of the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Anderson, and Disney. But the first literary fairy tales appeared in Renaissance Italy, and long before the Grimms there was already a rich and sophisticated tradition that included hundreds of tales, including many of those today considered "classic." The authors featured in this volume have, over the centuries, explored and interrogated the intersections between elite and popular cultures and oral and literary narratives, just as they have investigated the ways in which fairy tales have been and continue to be rewritten as expressions of both collective identities and individual sensibilities. The fairy tale in its Italian incarnations provides a striking example of how this genre is a potent vehicle for expressing cultural aspirations and anxieties as well as for imagining different ways of narrating shared futures.

Download or read book The Pleasant Nights Volume 1 written by Don Beecher and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 777 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned today for his contribution to the rise of the modern European fairy tale, Giovan Francesco Straparola (c. 1480–c. 1557) is particularly known for his dazzling anthology The Pleasant Nights. Originally published in Venice in 1550 and 1553, this collection features seventy-three folk stories, fables, jests, and pseudo-histories, including nine tales we might now designate for ‘mature readers’ and seventeen proto-fairy tales. Nearly all of these stories, including classics such as ‘Puss in Boots,’ made their first ever appearance in this collection; together, the tales comprise one of the most varied and engaging Renaissance miscellanies ever produced. Its appeal sustained it through twenty-six editions in the first sixty years. This full critical edition of The Pleasant Nights presents these stories in English for the first time in over a century. The text takes its inspiration from the celebrated Waters translation, which is entirely revised here to render it both more faithful to the original and more sparkishly idiomatic than ever before. The stories are accompanied by a rich sampling of illustrations, including originals from nineteenth-century English and French versions of the text. As a comprehensive critical and historical edition, these volumes contain far more information on the stories than can be found in any existing studies, literary histories, or Italian editions of the work. Donald Beecher provides a lengthy introduction discussing Straparola as an author, the nature of fairy tales and their passage through oral culture, and how this phenomenon provides a new reservoir of stories for literary adaptation. Moreover, the stories all feature extensive commentaries analysing not only their themes but also their fascinating provenances, drawing on thousands of analogue tales going back to ancient Sanskrit, Persian, and Arabic stories. Immensely entertaining and readable, The Pleasant Nights will appeal to anyone interested in fairy tales, ancient stories, and folk creations. Such readers will also enjoy Beecher’s academically solid and erudite commentaries, which unfold in a manner as light and amusing as the stories themselves.
