Book excerpt: Excerpt from German Household Tales, Vol. 30 of 3 The stories had thus the qualities of the minds that held them, with the ignorance, the superstition, the traditionary beliefs of the peas ants of hesse-cassel and other places. In many there was a frankness and familiarity in the use of sacred names that would shock an older per son reading the stories with children, and would be undesirable for the children themselves to take as matter of course There is also in the original form a very frequent recourse to the Devil as one of the dramatis personae, and always a great dependence on all manner of imaginary supernatural creatures. In some of the stories also, though not in many, the laws of right and wrong are reversed, and the cruel stepmother is a very much more common figure than she is in real life.

Download or read book Telling Tales written by David Blamires and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany has had a profound influence on English stories for children. The Brothers Grimm, The Swiss Family Robinson and Johanna Spyri's Heidi quickly became classics but, as David Blamires clearly articulates in this volume, many other works have been fundamental in the development of English chilren's stories during the 19th Centuary and beyond. Telling Tales is the first comprehensive study of the impact of Germany on English children's books, covering the period from 1780 to the First World War. Beginning with The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, moving through the classics and including many other collections of fairytales and legends (Musaus, Wilhelm Hauff, Bechstein, Brentano) Telling Tales covers a wealth of translated and adapted material in a large variety of forms, and pays detailed attention to the problems of translation and adaptation of texts for children. In addition, Telling Tales considers educational works (Campe and Salzmann), moral and religious tales (Carove, Schmid and Barth), historical tales, adventure stories and picture books (including Wilhelm Busch's Max and Moritz) together with an analysis of what British children learnt through textbooks about Germany as a country and its variegated history, particularly in times of war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from German Stories Retold (Grimms Marchen): Edited for School Use In the arrangement of this work, the beginner is looked upon as a child in the language. His reading should be graded for him as it is for children who are learning to read their mother tongue. The best way to do this is to rewrite stories. Fireside tales such as Grimms' furnish such a foundation and readily admit of suitable additions. In the first few stories the sentences are simple and short; common words and expressions are used until the learner grows accustomed to the natural flow of the language. New words, new expressions and longer sentences have been introduced as gradu ally as possible. In this way the beginner Can easily do a large amount of reading. As an aid to fix the language more firmly in the memory and to cultivate conversation and narration, questions are given on each story. The answer to each question should be a complete sentence. The aim is to help the learner to make a practical use of what he is learning. In this way come acquisi tion and ability.
