Book The Struwwelpeter or Merry Stories and Funny Pictures  HD

Download or read book The Struwwelpeter or Merry Stories and Funny Pictures HD written by Heinrich Hoffmann and published by Null Papier Verlag. This book was released on 2019-08-07 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Der Struwwelpeter" is regarded as the most successful German children's book ever and has been translated into many languages. In 1844, the doctor Heinrich Hoffmann tried to find a picture book that he could give to his three-year-old son Carl for Christmas. Unfortunately (or fortunately for the reader) he found nothing that seemed appropriate for a child of Carl's age. Instead, Hoffmann bought an empty notebook and decided to draw a picture book for his son himself. The original manuscript is exhibited in the German National Museum. Soon after the first edition, the children's book was translated into many languages. There were also parodies or politicizing rewritings early on. From the very beginning, the subject of raising children split the readership and provoked a critical discourse. By the time copyright became free in 1925, more than 540 editions had appeared. The classic English translation is by Mark Twain. O waly me! O waly me! Just such a boy I ne'er did see. He caught the flies, poor helpless things, Made hoppers of them, minus wings. He killed the birds, where'er he could, And catless made the neighborhood; And worst of all that he did do, He banged the housemaid black and blue. Null Papier Verlag www.null-papier.de

Download or read book Telling Tales written by David Blamires and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany has had a profound influence on English stories for children. The Brothers Grimm, The Swiss Family Robinson and Johanna Spyri's Heidi quickly became classics but, as David Blamires clearly articulates in this volume, many other works have been fundamental in the development of English chilren's stories during the 19th Centuary and beyond. Telling Tales is the first comprehensive study of the impact of Germany on English children's books, covering the period from 1780 to the First World War. Beginning with The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, moving through the classics and including many other collections of fairytales and legends (Musaus, Wilhelm Hauff, Bechstein, Brentano) Telling Tales covers a wealth of translated and adapted material in a large variety of forms, and pays detailed attention to the problems of translation and adaptation of texts for children. In addition, Telling Tales considers educational works (Campe and Salzmann), moral and religious tales (Carove, Schmid and Barth), historical tales, adventure stories and picture books (including Wilhelm Busch's Max and Moritz) together with an analysis of what British children learnt through textbooks about Germany as a country and its variegated history, particularly in times of war.
