@franie No problem, I can explain here. In particular the major changes they made in the Roald Dahl’s works are in “The Witches” who the grandmother tell to the child to do not pull the hair of every woman he meet to verify is a witch, in the original edition. In the modified version the grandmother said to the child that every woman have theirs motive to wear a wig. They made this change because they thought that phrase instigated violence against women. Another important modification have made in “Matilda”, when in the original version It said that the main character, Matilda, read Rudyard Kipling’s books, they put in the modified version that she read Jane Austen instead. They made this change because Kipling’s works was deeply influenced by the colonialists’s mentality of 1800s, and they thought that was not good for children

@franie Honestly, I think this changes are useless because every child can understand that pull someone hair to verify is a witch or not, isn’t a good thing to do and I haven’t heard about a person who become violent against women because they read things. The same thing goes to Matilda’s changes of readings. I think the best thing to do with a child when they read something about Kipling or the hair pulling is sit and talking to them about about this argument, with patience and tolerance, and don’t underestimate their intelligence and comprehension.

Lupercalia- English Version

Warm is the blood
flowing through the veins,
and the scarlet drops
touch the snowy ground
making it bloom.

Caldo è il sangue
che scorre nelle vene,
e le gocce vermiglie
toccano la terra innevata
facendola fiorire.

Written in stone
and engraved in burning iron,
nature is awakening
under the warm of the sunrise,
while the freezing snow
loosen its candid embrace.

Brigid - Italian Version

Scritto sulla pietra
e inciso nel ferro ardente,
la natura si risveglia
sotto le calde luci dell’alba,
mentre la gelida neve
allenta il suo candido abbraccio.
