Synopsis "Le Petit Prince (in French)"

Description en francais: Ce conte poetique et philosophique est l'?uvre la plus connue d'Antoine de Saint-Exupery. Imaginez-vous perdu dans le desert, loin de tout lieu habite, et face a un petit garcon tout blond, surgi de nulle part. Si de surcroit ce petit garcon vous demande avec insistance de dessiner un mouton, vous voila plus qu'etonne ! A partir de la, vous n'aurez plus qu'une seule interrogation: savoir d'ou vient cet etrange petit bonhomme et connaitre son histoire. S'ouvre alors un monde etrange et poetique, peuple de metaphores, decrit a travers les paroles d'un "petit prince" qui porte aussi sur notre monde a nous un regard tout neuf, empli de naivete, de fraicheur et de gravite. Tres vite, vous decouvrez d'etranges planetes, peuplees d'hommes d'affaires, de buveurs, de vaniteux, d'allumeurs de reverberes. Cette evocation onirique, a laquelle participent les aquarelles de l'auteur, a tout d'un parcours initiatique, ou l'enfant apprendra les richesses essentielles des rapports humains et le secret qui les regit: "On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux." Oeuvre essentielle de la litterature, ce livre de Saint-Exupery est un ouvrage que l'on aura a coeur de raconter a son enfant, page apres page, histoire aussi de redecouvrir l'enfant que l'on etait autrefois, avant de devenir une grande personne ! Comprend de belles illustrations! Description in English: The Little Prince, first published in 1943, is a novella, the most famous work of French aristocrat, writer, poet, and pioneering aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900-1944). The novella is the fourth most-translated book in the world and was voted the best book of the 20th century in France. Translated into more than 250 languages and dialects (as well as Braille), selling nearly two million copies annually with sales totaling over 140 million copies worldwide, it has become one of the best-selling books ever published. The novella has been adapted to numerous art forms and media, including audio recordings, radio plays, live stage, film, television, ballet, and operatic works. The Little Prince is a poetic tale, in which a pilot stranded in the desert meets a young prince fallen to Earth from a tiny asteroid. The story is philosophical and includes social criticism, remarking on the strangeness of the adult world. Though ostensibly styled as a children's book, The Little Prince makes several observations about life and human nature. For example, Saint-Exupery tells of a fox meeting the young prince during his travels on Earth. The story's essence is contained in the lines uttered by the fox to the little prince: "One sees clearly only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eye." Other key thematic messages are articulated by the fox, such as: "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed." and "It is the time you have lost for your rose that makes your rose so important." The fox's messages are arguably the book's most famous quotations because they deal with human relationships. Includes beautiful illustrations!

(Lyon, 1900 - en el mar Tirreno, 1944) Novelista y aviador francés; sus experiencias como piloto fueron a menudo su fuente de inspiración. Tercero de los cinco hijos de una familia de la aristocracia (su padre tenía el título de vizconde), Antoine de Saint-Exupéry vivió una infancia feliz en las propiedades familiares, aunque perdió a su progenitor a la edad de cuatro años. Estuvo muy ligado a su madre, cuya sensibilidad y cultura lo marcaron profundamente, y con la que mantuvo una voluminosa correspondencia durante toda su vida. El 6 de abril de 1943 apareció su obra cumbre, El Principito, catalogada como una las mejores creaciones literarias del siglo XX. Ha sido traducida a más de 250 idiomas.
