"Mary Alice Murray's translation has stood the test of time It faithfully conveys the directness, ironic humour, and pathos of the original as Collodi leads Pinocchio through the twists and turns of his captivating story" (Oxford History). This first edition in English is charmingly illustrated by Enrico Mazzanti, the illustrator of the Italian 1883 edition. Soon he would conceive of a distinctly Italian fairy tale, complex and fantastical: "Its lessons are simple, but it is not a simplistic text" (Wunderlich & Morrissey).Ī shorter version of the story first appeared serially in a children's magazine in Italy from Jto January 1883 and was first published in its full-length book form in Italy in 1883. "A classic work of Italian literature its long-term popularity and its importance as a source of inspiration to writers and other artists is unquestionable." – Wunderlich & MorrisseyĪfter a career in journalism, Collodi turned to children's literature, first translating a collection of Perrault's fairy tales into Italian.
