By: Carlo COLLODI (1826 - 1890), translated by Carol Della CHIESA (1887 - 1972)
The Adventures of Pinocchio is a novel for
children by Italian author Carlo Collodi (here transl. by Carol della
Chiesa). The first half was published in serial form between 1881 and
1883, and then completed as a book for children in February 1883. It is
about the mischievous adventures of Pinocchio, an animated marionette,
and his poor father, a woodcarver named Geppetto. It is considered a
classic of children’s literature and has spawned many derivative works
of art, such as Disney’s classic 1940 animated movie of the same name,
and commonplace ideas, such as a liar’s long nose.
