Peter Pan is a character created by Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie. A mischievous boy who can fly and never grows up, Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood having adventures on the small island of Neverland as the leader of his gang, the Lost Boys, interacting with mermaids, Native Americans, fairies, pirates, and occasionally ordinary children from the world outside Neverland. 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 an animated film, a dramatic film, a TV series and other works. ==Origin== J. M. Barrie first used Peter Pan as a character in a section of ''The Little White Bird'' (1902), an adult novel. He returned to that character 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. The play was highly popular, running to 1913. 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. Barrie adapted and expanded the play's story line as a novel, published in 1911 as ''Peter and Wendy''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Pan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
