description

Giuseppe Fanciulli can be considered a "deuteragonist" of children’s literature, since his literal and theatrical compositions have lost their importance over the years and only rarely were cited by his experts. The following contribution therefore intends to analyze the Fanciulli’s life and literary production, to reconstruct a complex and original literary itinerary, expression of creativity, of ingenuity and of a sincere love for the childhood, as well as manifestation of the desire to combine the literature with the education, accompanying the new generations towards a path of intellectual, ethical and moral growth.
