Papa Carlo then sells his only good jacket in order to buy textbooks for Buratino and sends him to school.
Papa Carlo tries to shorten it, but Buratino resists. Upon creation, Buratino comes out long-nosed due to Papa Carlo's sloppy woodworking. According to the story, he is carved by Papa Carlo (the story's version of Geppetto) from a log, and suddenly comes to life.
Like Pinocchio, Buratino is a long-nosed wooden puppet. Miron Petrovsky, in his article on the subject, states that the book was based upon a 1924 translation made by Nina Petrovskaya (1879-1928) and edited by Tolstoy, who had already removed many of the elements absent in The Golden Key. Researchers, however, do not tend to find this explanation plausible, since the first Russian translation of Pinocchio didn't appear until Tolstoy was in his mid-twenties.
The resulting tale proved to be so unique and was well-liked by the author's kids that he decided to write it down and publish it. The story has been made into several films, including the animated 1959 film and the live-action 1975 film.Īccording to Tolstoy, he had read Pinocchio as a child, but, having lost the book, he started re-imagining it many years later in an attempt to come up with a series of bedside stories for his own children.
The book was published in 1936 the figure of Buratino quickly became hugely popular among children in the Soviet Union and remains so in Russia to this day (Buratino is one of the most popular characters of Russian children's literature). The name Buratino derives from the Italian burattino, which means "wooden puppet" or "doll". Buratino originated as a character in the commedia dell'arte. A 1992 Russian postage stamp depicting Buratinoīuratino (Russian: Буратино) is the main character of Aleksey Nikolayevich Tolstoy's 1936 book The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Buratino, which is based on the 1883 Italian novel The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi.
