Explanation for Today
In the Meiji era, there was a translated book called “Aichan’s Dream Story”, where a girl chases a rabbit in her dreams and gets lost in a mysterious world.
“Alice” was renamed to Xiaoa.
During the Meiji and Taisho eras, Japanese people were not familiar with Western names, so names of characters were changed or translated.
In the book we discussed today, the names of the characters are also changed.
For example, Clara is “Kurako”, Peter is “Benta”, Aunt Dete is “Date-san”, and the protagonist Heidi is named “Kaede”.
The original work is divided into two parts, each with a long title.
Part 1: “Heidi’s Training Period and Tour Period”
Part 2: “Heidi Utilizes What She Learned”
It might be changed to “Kaede Story” because it could be difficult.
