Download or read book Household Stories by the Brothers Grimm written by Jacob Grimm and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They saw their work in gathering the fairy tales of Europe as an academic exercise, but the Brothers Grimm-aka German folklorists and linguists JAKOB (1785-1863) and WILHELM GRIMM (1786-1859)-are today remembered best as tellers of dark stories for children. Here, in one compact volume, are 53 of the most beloved of the stories they assembled, from well-known ones such as "The Sleeping Beauty," "The Frog Prince," "Rapunzel," and "Hansel and Grethel" to more obscure ones including "The Rabbit's Bride," "Six Soldiers of Fortune," "Faithful John," and "The Three Spinsters." A treasury of classic stories, this replica of an 1886 edition-translated by English writer LUCY CRANE (1842-1882), with beautiful line drawings by her brother, William Crane-will delight children and adults alike.

Book Clever Maids

Download or read book Clever Maids written by Valerie Paradiz and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2009-04-27 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The famous fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm - stories like Snow White , Red Riding Hood , and Rumplestiltskin - are know to millions of people around the world and are deeply embedded in the collective psyche. In this charming account, writer and scholar Valerie Paradiz reveals the true story of how the fairy tales came to be. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, collectors and editors of more than 200 folk stories, were major German intellects of the nineteenth century, contemporaries of Goethe and Schiller. But as Paradiz reveals here, the romantic image of the two brothers traveling the countryside, transcribing tales told to them by peasants, is a far cry from the truth. In fact, more than half the fairy tales the Grimm brothers collected were actually contributed by their educated female friends from the bourgeois and aristocratic classes. While German folkloric scholars-all of them male-fancied themselves the keepers of the cultural flame, it was a handful of women who ensured that millions would know the stories of Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella by heart. Set against the backdrop of the chaotic Napoleonic wars and the years of high German romanticism, Clever Maids chronicles one of the most fascinating literary collaborations in European history and brilliantly captures the intellectual spirit of the men and women of the age. Even more, it illuminates the ways in which the Grimm tales, with their mythic portrayals of courage, sacrifice, and betrayal, still speak so powerfully to us today.

The collection has acquired worldwide fame and also includes popular tales as "Cinderella," "The Frog Prince," "Hansel and Gretel," "Rhapunzel," "Snow White" and "Rumpelstilt kin." These tales had been compiled by the Grimm Brothers who were academics, philologists as well as cultural researchers involved in a bigger project aiming at protecting as well as determining the cultural heritage of the German-speaking areas. They gathered stories from different oral and written sources, aiming to capture them in a form close to their folk roots. The tales in "Household Stories" vary considerably; Some are moralistic and light while others are dark and have themes unsuitable for kids today. These stories have had several adaptations over time, sometimes softening the darker aspects to make them much more attractive to a contemporary young audience. The Grimm Brothers' work has broader importance than merely entertainment. The collection is an excellent scholarly asset that offers detailed information on the cultural and social history of german - speaking world.
