Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book by the English author consists of two parts - The Jungle Book (1894) and The Second Jungle Book (1895) - which narrate a series of adventures of an Indian boy raised by wild animals in the jungle. As he matures, he returns to human society, which he subconsciously longs for. Life in the wild, governed by the natural laws of necessity, allows the author to reflect on human society, where the balance between good and necessary evil is disrupted. It is essentially a prose epic featuring animal characters, primarily set in the Indian jungle. The first book contains seven stories, while the second contains eight, each introduced by a short poem and followed by additional poetic texts that complement the narratives. More than half of these tales (three in the first and five in the second part) focus on the young boy Mowgli, who was abducted by a man-eating tiger and saved by a wolf pack. In this world, animals communicate with each other, while humans remain oblivious to their language. Mowgli learns the language of the animals and becomes an integral part of the jungle and a member of the wolf pack.
