The Cowardly Lion is a character in the fictional Land of Oz created by American author L. Frank Baum. He is depicted as an African lion, but like all animals in Oz, he can speak. Since lions are supposed to be "The Kings of Beasts," the Cowardly Lion believes that his fear makes him inadequate. He does not understand that courage means acting in the face of fear, which he does frequently. Only during the aftermath of the Wizard's gift, when he is under the influence of an unknown liquid substance that the Wizard orders him to drink is he not filled with fear. He argues that the courage from the Wizard is only temporary, although he continues to do brave deeds.

  • El lleó covard és un personatge de El màgic d'Oz que ha passat a la cultura popular. Contràriament al tòpic que fa del lleó el rei de la selva i per tant un emblema de coratge i fortalesa, aquest lleó és un animal poruc que demana que la màgia li restauri el valor, sense adonar-se que el conté al seu interior, com demostra en situacions adverses. Té un paper còmic a la novel·la i adaptacions posteriors, pel contrast entre la imatge que tenen els desconeguts d'ell (una bèstia ferotge) i el terror que ell sent. Igualment, com els altres acompanyants de Dorothy, té un paper tendre perquè mostra febleses pròpies dels humans, en una faula inversa. (ca)

  • El León Cobarde es un personaje de El maravilloso mago de Oz, escrita por L. Frank Baum, que ha pasado a la cultura popular. Contrariamente al tópico que hace del león el rey de la selva, y por tanto un emblema de coraje y fortaleza, este león es un animal antropomórfico miedoso que pide que la magia le restaure el valor, sin darse cuenta de que lo contiene en su interior, como demuestra en situaciones adversas. Representa un papel cómico en la novela y adaptaciones posteriores, por el contraste entre la imagen que tienen los desconocidos de él (una bestia feroz) y el terror que él siente. Igualmente, como los demás acompañantes de Dorothy, tiene un papel tierno, porque muestra debilidades propias de los humanos, en una fábula inversa. (es)
  • Il Leone Codardo è uno dei personaggi del celebre romanzo per ragazzi Il meraviglioso mago di Oz, scritto da L. Frank Baum. Questo bizzarro personaggio è condannato da una terribile codardia che lo costringe a nascondersi da tutto e da tutti e a non scappare dagli altri animali solo perché questi hanno paura ad avvicinarglisi a causa dei suoi ruggiti. Spaventato da ogni minimo pericolo conduce un'esistenza solitaria, dedita solo a una caccia necessaria per sfamarsi. (it)
