Synopsis "Peter Pan (in English)"

Peter PanA novel by J. M. Barrie on a free-spirited and mischievous young boy who can fly and never grows upJ. M. BarriePeter Pan is a fictional character created by Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie. A free-spirited and mischievous young boy who can fly and never grows up, Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood having adventures on the mythical island of Neverland as the leader of the Lost Boys, interacting with fairies, pirates, mermaids, Native Americans, and occasionally ordinary children from the world outside Neverland.Peter Pan has become a cultural icon symbolizing youthful innocence and escapism. In addition to two distinct works by Barrie, the character has been featured in a variety of media and merchandise, both adapting and expanding on Barrie's works. These include a 1953 animated film, a 2003 dramatic/live-action film, a television series and many other works. J. M. Barrie first used Peter Pan as a character in a section of The Little White Bird (1902), an adult novel where he appears as a seven-day-old baby in the chapter entitled Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. Following the success of the 1904 play, Barrie's publishers, Hodder and Stoughton, extracted chapters 13-18 of The Little White Bird and republished them in 1906 under the title Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, with the addition of illustrations by Arthur Rackham.He returned to the character of Peter Pan as the centre of his stage play entitled Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, which premiered on 27 December 1904 in London. Barrie later adapted and expanded the play's story line as a novel, published in 1911 as Peter and Wendy.

J.M. Barrie (Kirriemuir, Escocia, 1860 - Londres, 1937) fue un escritor y dramaturgo escocés conocido especialmente por ser el creador de Peter Pan. Nacido en el seno de una familia de artesanos de escasos recursos, tuvo una infancia feliz hasta que la muerte de un hermano, cuando él contaba apenas seis años de edad, alteró profundamente la vida familiar y trastornó la salud mental de su madre, que se convirtió en una persona desequilibrada, autoritaria e inflexible, cuya influencia y recuerdo pesó para siempre sobre James. El principal anhelo de Barrie durante el resto de su vida fue recuperar la felicidad de sus primeros años y mantuvo siempre un matiz infantil en su personalidad. En Londres alcanzó la fama con sus novelas y obras de teatro. Además, fue allí donde conoció a los hijos de la familia Llewelyn Davies, fuente de inspiración para escribir Peter Pan, la obra de teatro sobre un chico que no quería crecer y sobre Wendy, su compañera de aventuras en Nunca Jamás. Años más tarde la convirtió en novela: Peter y Wendy fue un auténtico fenómeno en la era eduardiana, la Belle Époque británica que aunó los años de inocencia, hedonismo y despreocupación previos a la primera guerra mundial.
