Articles liés à The Song of Robin Hood
Synopsis
Anne Malcolmson, Grace Castagnetta, and Caldecott medalist Virginia Lee Burton joined forces in 1947 to produce the definitive edition of The Song of Robin Hood. Their triumphant achievement was one of the most distinctive presentations of the legend ever published, and it received a Caldecott Honor Medal in 1948.
Through meticulous research and unfailing perseverance, Anne Malcolmson rediscovered fifteen of the original ballads of Robin Hood; Grace Castagnetta adapted them to modern musical notation. Virginia Lee Burton spent three years on drawings to accompany the songs, ultimately producing a work of art filled with exquisite detail and worthy of comparison to the greatest illuminated manuscripts of the medieval era.
The text, the music, and the illustrations combine to form a harmonious and timeless work of art. There is no better way to introduce young readers to the legend of Robin Hood, or to renew a love of the tale in the hearts of those who already know the classic story. Lovingly revived and beautifully reissued, The Song of Robin Hood stands as one of the truly stunning books of our time.

À propos des auteurs
Grace Castagnetta (1912-1998), a pianist, also served as editor for George Gershwin's Concerto in F.
Virginia Lee Burton (1909-1968) was the talented author and illustrator of some of the most enduring books ever written for children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for THE LITTLE HOUSE, Burton's books include heroes and happy endings, lively illustrations, and a dash of nostalgia. She lived with her two sons, Aristides and Michael, and her husband George Demetrios, the sculptor, in a section of Gloucester, Massachusetts, called Folly Cove. Here she taught a class in design and from it emerged the Folly Cove designers, a group of internationally known professional artisans. She is the author of many classic children's picture books, including MIKE MULLIGAN AND HIS STEAM SHOVEL and KATY AND THE BIG SNOW.

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. Burton, Virginia Lee (illustrateur). First Thus. Tall quarto hard cover with glossy illustrated paper cover boards. All over print in silver and black of chain mail, with a red framed silver and black title box. The dust jacket is illustrated in black, red, white green and silver. There i a central image of Robin Hood blowing a horn, with musical notes floating upwards. The end papers are an elaborate figural print in green and white. The book and dust jacket, with an intact price, are both in fine, as new condition. This is a gorgeous book, in design and execution. There is a preface by Anne lMalcolmson describing the difficulty in presenting folklore, which actually is constantly changing as it is told and retold through time, as this has. She discusses the essential editing, and the interpretation that has been required to present this book in the form that it is in, along with a list of the musical presentations , their descriptions and their titles. This is followed by a note from the illustrator, Virginia Lee Burton, listing the flora and fauna associated with each ballad, and a table of contents of the illustrations. Followed by the text, the illustrations, the words and music to the ballads, all elaborately bordered and accompanied by many more illustrations than the full page ones listed in the contents. All of the illustrations and decorations are rendered in incredible detail in striking black and white. Can you tell that I absolutely love this book! 123 pp. N° de réf. du vendeur 008515
