About Fairy Tales by Brothers Grimm

Fairy Tales by Brothers Grimm is a collection of German fairy tales by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. Mirror, mirror on the wall...A compilation of Brothers Grimm fairy tales complete with illustrations. The Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm brings to life twenty-seven of the most beloved Grimm stories, including classics such as Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Hansel and Gretel and much more. They are the stories we've known since we were children. Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty. But the works originally collected by the Brothers Grimm in the early 1800s are not necessarily the versions we heard before bedtime. They're darker and often don't end very happily—but they're often far more interesting. This collection of Fairy Tales by Brothers Grimm includes all our cherished favorites, Snow White, Rumpelstiltskin, Little Red Cap, and many more in their original versions.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Children's and Household Tales is a collection of German fairy tales first published in 1812 by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. The collection is commonly known in the Anglosphere as Grimm's Fairy Tales. The first volumes were much criticized because, although they were called "Children's Tales", they were not regarded as suitable for children, both for the scholarly information included and the subject matter. Many changes through the editions – such as turning the wicked mother of the first edition in Snow White and Hansel and Gretel (shown in original Grimm stories as Hänsel and Grethel) to a stepmother, were probably made with an eye to such suitability. They removed sexual references—such as Rapunzel's innocently asking why her dress was getting tight around her belly, and thus naïvely revealing her pregnancy and the prince's visits to her stepmother—but, in many respects, violence, particularly when punishing villains, was increased.
