Carlo Lorenzini (Script error: No such module "IPA".; 24 November 1826 – 26 October 1890), better known by the pen name Carlo Collodi (/kəˈloʊdi/ Script error: No such module "Respell".; Script error: No such module "IPA".), was an Italian author, humourist,[1] and journalist,[2] widely known for his fairy tale novel The Adventures of Pinocchio.
Early life
Lorenzini was born in Florence on 24 November 1826. His mother Angiolina Orzali Lorenzini was a seamstress from Collodi, the town from which he later took the pen name, and his father Domenico Lorenzini was a cook.[3] Both parents worked for the Script error: No such module "Lang". Ginori Lisci.[1] Carlo was the eldest child in the family[4] and he had ten siblings; seven died at a young age.[5] He spent most of his childhood in the town of Collodi where his mother was born. He lived there with his maternal grandmother. After attending primary school, he was sent to study at a theological seminary in Colle Val d'Elsa.[4] An account at the seminary shows that the Script error: No such module "Lang". had offered financial aid, but the boy found that he did not want to be a priest so he continued his education at the College of the Scolopi Fathers in Florence.[6] In 1844, he started working at the Florentine bookstore Libreria Piatti, where he assisted Giuseppe Aiazzi, a prominent Italian manuscript specialist.[6]
Career
During the Italian Wars of Independence in 1848 and 1860, Lorenzini served as a volunteer with the Tuscan Army. His active interest in political matters can be seen in his earliest literary works, as well as in the founding of the satirical newspaper Script error: No such module "Lang". in 1853.[7] This newspaper was censored by order of the Grand Duke of Tuscany.[8][9] In 1854, he published his second newspaper, Script error: No such module "Lang". ("The Controversy").[10] Lorenzini's first publications were in his periodicals. A debut came in 1856 with the play Script error: No such module "Lang". and parodic guidebook Script error: No such module "Lang"., both in 1856.[11] By 1860, he published his first notable work called Script error: No such module "Lang". (Mr. Alberi Is Right!), which outlined his political and cultural vision of Italy. This is the text where Lorenzini started using the Collodi pseudonym, which was taken from his mother's hometown.[1]
Lorenzini had also begun intense activity on other political newspapers such as Script error: No such module "Lang".; at the same time he was employed by the Censorship Commission for the Theatre. During this period he composed various satirical sketches and stories (sometimes simply by collating earlier articles), including Script error: No such module "Lang". (1880), Script error: No such module "Lang". (1881), and Script error: No such module "Lang". (1887).[1]
Lorenzini became disenchanted with Italian politics afterwards, so he turned to children's literature and his first works involved translating French fairy tales into Italian.[4] In 1875, for instance, he completed Script error: No such module "Lang"., a translation of French fairy tales by Charles Perrault. In 1876, Lorenzini wrote Script error: No such module "Lang". (inspired by Alessandro Luigi Parravicini's Giannetto), the Script error: No such module "Lang"., and Script error: No such module "Lang"., a pedagogic series which explored the unification of Italy through the ironic thoughts and actions of the character Giannettino.[1]
Lorenzini became fascinated by the idea of using an amiable, rascally character as a means of expressing his own convictions through allegory. In 1880, he began writing Script error: No such module "Lang". (Story of a Marionette), also called Le avventure di Pinocchio, which was published weekly in Script error: No such module "Lang"..[1] Pinocchio was adapted into a 1940 film by Disney that is considered to be one of Disney's greatest films.[12][13][14]
Lorenzini died suddenly in Florence on 26 October 1890 at the age of 63 and is interred at Cimitero Monumentale Delle Porte Sante in Florence.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. The National Carlo Collodi Foundation was established in 1962 to promote education and the works of Collodi,[15] and Pinocchio Park, which was opened in 1956 in the town of Collodi and remains a popular attraction today.[16]
