Description

Explore the complex history of a classic tale with Pinocchio Goes Postmodern: Perils of a Puppet in the United States. Published by Routledge, this work represents the first full-length study in English regarding Carlo Collodi's The Adventures of Pinocchio. This book tracks how the puppet's journey reflects social changes from the pre-World War One era through to the present day. It examines the gap between the original story and the diluted versions many Americans recognize, such as the Disney classic. The authors investigate why the original narrative is often viewed as unsuitable for children when adults encounter the real story. By placing the puppet in various historical and cultural contexts, this study charts the progression of a childhood tale that has shaped many perspectives. It is an essential resource for those interested in the evolution of children's literature and its impact on culture.
