A Study of Attribution Theory in Antoine De Saint - Exupery’s the Little Prince
Abstract
Antoine de Saint-Exupery is a nobleman, military aviator, the French author and illustrator of the novella The Little Prince (French Title: Le Petit Prince).
Reynal & Hitchcock released it in both English and French for the first time in the United States in April 1943. After France was freed, it was published posthumously there. The narrative structure of the novella centres on a Little Prince who travels to several planets, including Earth, and tackles issues of grief, loneliness, friendship, and love. The Little Prince observes things about adulthood, human nature, and life. This work becomes Saint-Exupery’s most successful work, selling an estimated of 140 million copies around the world which makes it one of the best-selling in history. This book has been translated into 505 different languages and being the second most translated work in the world. This paper tries to implicate the study of Attribution Theory in the renowned novella.
