The Old Lady Shows Her Medals

Peter Pan, o menino que não queria crescer, inicialmente publicado como peça de teatro, ganhou os corações de muitas crianças e adultos, tornando-se um dos maiores clássicos da literatura mundial. A história do menino que vive na Terra do Nunca e se recusa a crescer foi criada a partir das histórias que Barrie contava aos filhos de sua amiga, Sylvia Davies. Mas o personagem pode ter sido inspirado também no irmão de Barrie, que morreu quando ainda era criança. Peter Pan, Sininho, Wendy, Garotos Perdidos e Capitão Gancho são personagens complexos e trazem à obra profundidade e discussões pertinentes acerca da infância.

Peter Pan, ese niño que se niega crecer y vive en el país de Nunca Jamás, pertenece sin duda a la cultura de todos. Esta versión de Peter Pan, que se traduce y publica por primera vez en castellano, es la obra de teatro que dio origen al conocido cuento de James M. Barrie. Peter Pan trata sobre cómo los niños han de descubrir su propia identidad y hacer frente a sus problemas, miedos y alegrías. Con esta edición creemos cubrir un hueco que aún quedaba en los libros escolares de filosofía: hacernos reflexionar sobre algo que a todos nos ocupa y preocupa: el riesgo de crecer y llegar a ser quienes somos.

Peter Pan e Wendy

Peter Pan. Il bambino che non voleva crescere. Testo originale a fronte

Where did Peter Pan come from? There is a very general conception that he stepped from Mr. Barrie's day-dreams straight upon the boards. But those who remember that delicate piece of sentiment, "The Little White Bird, or Adventures in Kensington Gardens" will find him already grown to his eternal youth there. In the story that the lonely old bachelor tells the boy David, Peter Pan is the same lad, whose "age is a week" and who "escaped from being human when he was seven days old; he escaped by the window and flew back to the Kensington Gardens," where, like all children, he had been a bird before he was born; and he lives in Kensington Gardens, which is the Never Never Land of "The Little White Bird."

Peter Pan nei giardini di Kensington

My Lady Nicotine "—a book that suggests but is very unlike " The Reveries of a Bachelor." The former is urban : the latter is provincial. A briar pipe filled with Arcadia Mixture starts the reveries in the one ; a hearth fire, in the other. The five bachelors in " My Lady Nicotine " seem to be utterly dissimilar in tastes and feelings—and have only one bond of union, their common love for the famous Arcadia Mixture. The solemnity with which they treat their pipes; their assured superiority to everybody outside of the circle which knows and appreciates that mysterious brand of tobacco ; the sentimental selfishness of their bachelor existence, and the delicate humor with which the quiet episodes are narrated—these are some of the charming qualities of the book. But the crowning humor of it is that the story is told by one of their number who boldly announces in the first chapter that he has married, and his wife has won him from his pipe and his comrades. He cheaply moralizes on their enslavement, and then in reveries calls up the happy days when he smoked with them. The closing chapter is a most subtle piece of writing. The narrator praises his constancy to his promise never to smoke again, and adds: " I have not even any craving for the Arcadia now, though it is a tobacco that should only be smoked by our greatest men." Then he confesses that when his wife is asleep and all the house is still, he sits with his empty briar in his mouth, and listens to the taps of a pipe in the hands of a smoker (whom he has never seen) on the other side of the wall. " When the man through the wall lights up I put my cold pipe in my mouth and we have a quiet hour together."
