翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク The Great Brain ： ウィキペディア英語版 The Great Brain ''The Great Brain'' is a series of children's books by American author John Dennis Fitzgerald (1906–1988). Set in the small town of Adenville, Utah, between 1896 and 1898, the stories are loosely based on Fitzgerald's childhood experiences. Although John D. Fitzgerald was born in Price, Utah, several references in the stories suggest Adenville is located in Utah's "Dixie" in the southwestern corner of the state, near St. George. The town was indeed a village located west of Cedar City about which little is known. The town is mentioned by Dr. Stephen L. Carr in his book, ''The Historical Guide to Utah Ghost Towns'', published 2009 by Western Epics. Chronicled by the first-person voice of John Dennis Fitzgerald, the stories mainly center on the escapades of John's mischievous older brother, Tom Dennis Fitzgerald, a.k.a. "The Great Brain." ''The Great Brain'' was made into a movie released in 1978, with the main character played by Jimmy Osmond.〔http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077632/〕 Mercer Mayer originally illustrated the books except for 1995's ''The Great Brain Is Back'' (which was illustrated by Diane deGroat). Mr. Mayer did the original cover illustrations for the first seven books as well, but Carl Cassler re-did the cover illustrations for some of the re-prints of the first seven books. ==Publication history== The Publisher's Note in ''The Great Brain Is Back'', published after the death of the author, recounts the story of the series' original publication. Fitzgerald had published the best-selling ''Papa Married a Mormon'' and its sequel, ''Mama's Boarding House'', in 1955 and 1958 respectively. Those books were set in Adenville, Utah, at the end of the 19th century. A third book was requested by the editor, E.L. Doctorow, but he changed jobs before the manuscript was completed. Fitzgerald submitted the new novel, which focused on the children of Adenville, to Doctorow at The Dial Press but by then family stories were out of favor with adult readers. The new editor for children's book offered to publish the novel if it were cut in half and eliminating some passages aimed at adults. The result was ''The Great Brain''. 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「The Great Brain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
