Cendrillon

by Charles Perrault

Les plus grands contes de tous les pays interprétés par les meilleurs illustrateurs contemporains. « Il était une fois »... Cette phrase annonçant des mondes magiques de fées, d'ogres ou de nains, nous l'avons tous en mémoire et en songe. Les contes habitent notre enfance et notre âge mûr. Ils nous offrent des récits palpitants. Ils n'imposent aucune morale mais dessinent, pour nos imaginations ravies, un univers précieux de symboles et de repères psychologiques. Ils nous enrichissent en profondeur, pour toute la vie. Voilà pourquoi nous rééditons aujourd'hui une anthologie des plus grands textes - parmi lesquels ceux de Grimm, Perrault et Andersen. Leur langue est limpide et leur illustration est confiée aux meilleurs artistes d'Europe et d'Amérique : André François, Seymour Chwast, Heinz Edelmann, Monique Félix, Marcel Imsand, Etienne Delessert, Rita Marshall, Georges Lemoine, John Howe, Roberto Innocenti et Sarah Moon. Elle renouvelle totalement le genre : c'est une extraordinaire porte ouverte sur l'art contemporain. Les illustrations de Roberto Innocenti et Etienne Delessert ont été réalisées à l'origine en grand format et ce n'est que justice de rendre hommage au grand talent de ces artistes en réimprimant ces albums au format réel.

About the author

Charles Perrault was a French author who laid foundations for a new literary genre, the fairy tale, and whose best known tales, offered as if they were pre-existing folk tales, include: Little Red Riding Hood, Sleeping Beauty, Puss in Boots, Cinderella, Bluebeard, Hop o' My Thumb), Diamonds and Toads, Patient Griselda, The Ridiculous Wishes...

Perrault's most famous stories are still in print today and have been made into operas, ballets (e.g., Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty), plays, musicals, and films, both live-action and animation.

The Brothers Grimm retold their own versions of some of Perrault's fairy tales.

Li este livro para o projeto do DisneyInUs, que consiste em ver um filme da Disney por mês e ler o conto/livro que lhe deu origem. Os filmes são escolhidos à sorte e no mês de Maio calhou ver o Cinderela. O conto que deu origem a esse filme foi o Cinderela de Charles Perrault.
Para saberem o que achei do livro e do filme podem dar uma espreitadela ao vídeo que fiz a falar de ambos e a tecer algumas comparações entre os dois: https://youtu.be/9UPzKMKnDJQ
P.S. - Falo também um pouco do live-action lançado em 2015.

Ouvi o audiobook hoje e recordei-me todas as diferenças entre o que se conta e o original. Realmente era bem mais do que aquilo que é atualmente. O que me espanta é que ainda assim era contado daquela forma às crianças.

This has been an intriguing collection of Cinderella tales. I've very much enjoyed reading it and it has been quite useful in my Cinderella research. I love that the tales span different times and places. Some were straight up funky, and I mean funky. But others were really sweet or just interesting and a little different than the story we're used to. It had the big names like Perrault and Grimm, too, which was nice. It was a very well-rounded collection. It had versions that often reminded me of The Goose Girl or One Eye, Two Eyes, Three Eyes and then it had some that were unique and yet more that were kind of hard to see the Cinderella connection. All in all, I'm glad I bought it and will reference it in the future. Great little collection for any hardcore fairy tale fans.

Прекрасна історія про добру, турботливу, терплячу дівчину, що отримує прекрасну долю, наче винагороду за своє щире серце.
Ілюстрації Галі Зінько роблять це коротке оповідання справжньою казкою, у яку, я – доросла готова вірити. Готова брати приклад, милуватись та щиро радіти цим цитринам від принца, хоч і всього лише намальованим.

Some differences from the story I thought I knew, kinda sad. But still a good story with a good ending!

[Ida Electra · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was fine. Seeing all of the different versions of this story was interesting, though sometimes rather repetitive. I enjoyed the essay at the end more than I expected to. Overall, a fairly average read, and not a book I think I will ever re-read.

[Isabella Loves Books · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a good story. A bit gory, but I was expecting that. The story is different from the Disney version but quite similar too. I was entertained throughout, the way this is written was fun to read.

One of my favorite fairy tales and nice tie in for the movie.

[Becky · Rating 3 out of 5]

I definitely like the movie versions better. There really isn't much to the book. This book has Charles Perrault and The Brothers Grimm version in it. I liked The Brothers Grimm version better.

Ілюстрації красиві, але динаміки не вистачає

NO text

This is just a book full of advertisements for their other books. This is a total ripoff. Hope you didn’t buy it
