rif. 9788582850244PENGUIN. new. Personagem imortal da literatura o menino Mowgli foi achado na selva e criado por uma loba. Para viver na floresta ele precisava aprender mais do que caminhar sem fazer ru�do ou enxergar no escuro. Sua forma humana que de in�cio parecia uma desvantagem ajudou a transform�-lo em um caso �nico. Mowgli somou a sabedoria dos lobos e a intelig�ncia dos homens para viver uma inf�ncia repleta de aventuras e descobrimentos. Muitos especialistas consideram Os livros da selva uma contraposi��o do universo infantil �� vida adulta do trabalho. Ao longo de diversos contos a sofistica��o narrativa de Kipling e de seus personagens � capaz de emocionar leitores de todas as idades. PENGUIN unknown
rif. 9788525433985LPM. new. Selvas plan�cies mares s�o alguns dos cen�rios dos sete contos que formam este volume. Mas n�o � �� toa que chama-se Livro da selva pois 'selvagem' � o adjetivo que d� o tom de todos os textos que retratam a vida livre e ind�mita de personagens que v�o de meninos criados por lobos a outros animais em oposi��o �� civiliza��o humana. Embora Rudyard Kipling 1865-1936 nunca tenha estado nas selvas indianas suas narrativas e descri��es s�o v�vidas e deliciosas e os confrontos e di�logos retratados fazem destas hist�rias aventuras perfeitas. Se por um lado a trajet�ria de Mogli o menino lobo que � a maior cria��o do autor tem um aspecto edificante pois ele cresce e se depara com o dilema de ter de abandonar a vida selvagem para se juntar �� civiliza��o dos homens inimigos dos animais por outro lado Kipling mostrou uma sensibilidade �� frente do seu tempo ao comparar a inf�ncia com a vida selvagem numa �poca em que a psicologia infantil ainda era incipiente. Hist�rias do Livro da selva foram in�meras vezes adaptadas para quadrinhos teatro e cinema mas a mais c�lebre de todas as vers�es foi Mogli o menino lobo dos est�dios Disney. O longa de 1967 �ltima produ��o a ser supervisionada pessoalmente por Walt Disney antes de sua morte foi lan�ado com imenso sucesso de p�blico e conquista espectadores at� hoje. Mas engana-se redondamente quem pensa que este � um 'livro para a juventude': nada poderia ser mais redutor. Se estamos diante de um livro de aventura para crian�as � para a crian�a que vive dentro de cada leitor. LPM unknown
