Was the story of ,"Pinocchio" written for any particular reason?

Answer 1

Collodi had not originally intended the work as children's literature; the ending was unhappy and allegorically dealt with serious themes. In the original serialized version, Pinocchio seemingly dies a gruesome death, hanged for his innumerable faults at the end of chapter 15. At the request of his editor, Collodi added chapters 16–36, in which the Blue Fairy rescues Pinocchio and eventually turns him into a real boy when he acquires a deeper understanding of himself, making it more suitable for children.

Pinocchio, in addition to a children's tale, is a novel of education, with values expressed through allegory. There are many ways to view these allegories. One is that they mirror the values of the middle class of the 19th century, in particular Italy as it became a nation state. Not surprisingly, although the book was very popular, in many upper class families of the period it was not a book initially regarded as suitable for "well-educated" children.
It is also an allegory of contemporary society, a look at the contrast between respectability and free instinct in a very severe, formal time. Behind the optimistic pedagogical appearance, the romance is a sad irony, and sometimes a satire, on that formal pedagogy and, through this, against the nonsense of these social manners in general.
