Charles Perrault Libri

Sono raccolte in questo volume le più belle fiabe composte da scrittori francesi del seicento e del settecento. Negli ultimi anni del regno di Luigi XIV iniziò a dilagare una vera e propria moda "delle fate" che stimolò molti scrittori alla rielaborazione delle più significative fiabe provenienti dalla tradizione popolare. Artisti operanti nei più diversi campi d'espressione - da Gustave Doré a Walt Disney, da Maurice Ravel a Jean Cocteau - hanno tratto ispirazione da questi racconti, che appartengono a uno dei più interessanti capitoli della narrativa europea. Da Cenerentola a Cappuccetto Rosso, da Pollicino a La Bella Addormentata nel Bosco, tornano in questa antologia gli indimenticabili protagonisti della nostra infanzia.

La bella addormentata, nota anche come La bella addormentata nel bosco, è una celebre fiaba tradizionale europea. La fiaba antesignana è da ricondurre a Giambattista Basile ma viene ricordata soprattutto nella versione di Charles Perrault (ne I racconti di mamma l'oca, 1697), in quella dei fratelli Grimm (ne Le fiabe del focolare, 1812), in quella rivisitata di Italo Calvino (ne Fiabe Italiane, 1956 - " La bella addormentata e i suoi figli" ) e attraverso il celebre omonimo cinematografico a disegni animati di Walt Disney, La bella addormentata nel bosco (Sleeping Beauty, 1959).
