Book The Collected Sicilian Folk and Fairy Tales of Giuseppe Pitr

Download or read book The Collected Sicilian Folk and Fairy Tales of Giuseppe Pitr written by Jack Zipes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is volume 2 of a two-volume set that collects 300 of the most entertaining and important folk and fairy tales of Giuseppe Pitré, a nineteenth century Sicilian folklorist whose significance ranks alongside the Brothers Grimm. In stark contrast to the more literary ambitions of the Grimms' tales, Pitré’s possess a charming, earthy quality that reflect the customs, beliefs, and superstitions of the common people more clearly than any other European folklore collection of the 19th century. Edited, translated, and with a critical introduction by world-renowned folk and fairy tale experts Jack Zipes and Joseph Russo, this is the first collection of Pitré’s tales available in English. Carmelo Letterer's illustrations throughout the volume are as lively and vivid as the stories themselves, illuminating the remarkable imagination captured in the tales.

Book The Pizzigoni Experimental Method in Sara Bertuzzi s Diaries

Download or read book The Pizzigoni Experimental Method in Sara Bertuzzi s Diaries written by Sandra Chistolini and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sheds new light on childhood education, and reveals Giuseppina Pizzigoni as a contemporary educator of Maria Montessori. While the former is almost unknown and the latter enjoys worldwide fame, both were protagonists of the profound changes in the Italian school system in the 20th century. Their lives developed in parallel, and both great women loved school, respected children, and believed in the strength of education. Pizzigoni’s disciple Sara Bertuzzi later picked up the baton, and continued the impulse of innovation, freedom, inclusion and sustainability, faithful to the features and fundaments of Pizzigoni’s pedagogy and methodology. She became the only expert in the field of the new school, and her diaries highlight the theory and practice of the experimental method in both kindergarten and preschool.

Book I racconti delle fate

Download or read book I racconti delle fate written by Carlo Collodi and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aonia edizioni. Nel 1875 Collodi cominciò a tradurre dal francese le fiabe di Charles Perrault, il maestro di fiabe indimenticabili quali: Cappuccetto Rosso, La Bella addormentata nel bosco, Cenerentola, Barba-blu, Il Gatto con gli stivali, tanto per citarne qualcuna. A queste fiabe Collodi ne aggiunse altre delle maggiori favoleggiatrici francesi del XVII-XVIII secolo: Madame d'Aulnoy e Madame Le Prince de Beaumont. Egli però non si limitò a tradurre: colorì e vivificò il linguaggio un po' ingessato degli originali, aggiungendo elementi di arguzia toscana e di spontaneità popolaresca. Fu il primo lavoro di Lorenzini per i ragazzi, ai quali dedicherà negli anni seguenti la maggior parte delle sue opere. Si trattò di traduzioni commissionate dall'editore Felice Paggi che, con la sua collana "Biblioteca Scolastica", intendeva fornire un adeguato ventaglio di titoli in buona lingua toscana per le scuole della neonata Italia unita.
