Meer oor die skrywer

Carlo Collodi, born Carlo Lorenzini on November 24, 1826, in Florence, Italy, was a prolific writer and journalist best known for his world-renowned children's classic, 'The Adventures of Pinocchio' (1883). Collodi took his pen name from the village of his mother's birth, reflecting his deep connection to his Italian heritage. Before creating his enduring masterwork, Collodi wrote a variety of texts, including translations of French fairy tales and several Italian-language texts under different pseudonyms. His foray into children's literature coincided with the unification of Italy, a time of great cultural and educational reform. 'Pinocchio' initially appeared as a serial between 1881 and 1883 and was later compiled into a single book which has since become one of the most translated non-religious books in the world. The story, often considered a metaphor for moral and social development, follows the misadventures of its titular wooden puppet, who yearns to become a real boy. Collodi's narrative style blends elements of satire, allegory and comedy, creating a rich tapestry that appeals to both children and adults. The depth and imagination of Collodi's work have solidified his standing in the Western literary canon, and his influence persists in various adaptations of Pinocchio in literature, theatre, and film. Collodi died on October 26, 1890, in Florence, but his legacy endures through the timeless charm and moral lessons encapsulated in the wooden fibers of Pinocchio.
