Purchase options and add-ons

Nineteen essays by educators discuss various strategies for teaching Collodi's Pinocchio and its adaptations. Some draw upon the story's 19th-century context, while others explore modern critical approaches. Sample topics include society in post-Unification Italy, the theme of the hero's journey, and the use of the film version in the classroom. A "Materials" section evaluates different editions and translations and suggests some audiovisual and electronic resources. Editor Sherberg teaches Italian at Washington University.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Sherberg has gathered an array of scholars in various disciplines to approach Collodi's famous work from the multiple perspectives the text itself demands. The result is a vast display of essays that will be useful in a large variety of college class settings." ―Myriam Swennen Ruthenberg, Florida Atlantic University

About the Author

Michael Sherberg, associate professor of Italian at Washington University, has written on Boccaccio, the Italian chivalric epic, Machiavelli, and the question of the language in sixteenth-century Italy. He also studies the Italian novel of the late nineteenth century and the literature of Sicily since the Unification.
