Book Struwwelpeter

    Book Details:
  • Author : Barbara Smith Chalou
  • Publisher : Lexington Books
  • Release : 2007
  • ISBN : 9780739116647
  • Pages : 116 pages

Download or read book Struwwelpeter written by Barbara Smith Chalou and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recent upsurge in interest in Der Struwwelpeter, written by Heinrich Hoffman has initiated a new wave of spin-offs, parodies, and retellings of these immensely popular stories. Hoffman's style, which is instructive and moralistic, coupled with the sadistic content of his works lend a unique quality to the stories that we don't see in contemporary children's literature. Struwwelpeter: Humor or Horror? is a critical analysis of the now infamous Struwwelpeter stories. While Hoffman intended his depictions of amputated limbs and burning children to be humorous and to warn children against misbehavior, some find the punishments can be excessively vicious. Looking beyond the history of child rearing practices and children's literature, Barbara Smith Chalou considers the socio-historic context in which the book was written and makes comparisons to contemporary children's fare that is similarly violent, but intended to be humorous.

Pulled into a warped version of their own town, Stadt Von Toten Kindern, the children soon find themselves face-to-face with an enigmatic boy named Struwwelpeter who convinces them to embrace their new-found freedom the unruly town has to offer. Betsy Braun Krause, a 12 year old girl who has long been tormented by the disappearance of her older brother, is immediately befriended by Struwwelpeter who sweeps her up by his strange sense of humor and boyish charm. She soon discovers, however, that there is more to this strange boy than he is letting on. While facing one of her lifelong fears, Betsy is separated from her six year old brother, Conrad, who disappears into the dark, dead forest and is ruthlessly hunted down by a sinister creature. Driven by fear and her desire to save her younger brother, Betsy travels through strange and evil lands to uncover the dark truth about Struwwelpeter, the evil that brought them here and the secret motivation behind it all.
