Kinder- und Hausmärchen (1812/15) Teil 2
'Kinder- und Hausmärchen (1812/15) Teil 2' Summary
The second volume of the first edition of *Kinder- und Hausmärchen* presents a unique collection of German folk tales, offering a glimpse into the raw and often dark narratives that were collected and later edited by the Brothers Grimm. This edition reveals the original versions of classic stories, such as Rapunzel, where she becomes pregnant and Hansel and Gretel, where their biological mother abandons them in the woods, rather than their stepmother. The collection includes tales with strong Huguenot influence, such as *The Cat in Boots*, a story attributed to Charles Perrault, which was later removed from the collection. The stories explore a range of themes, including societal anxieties, morality, family dynamics, and the consequences of actions. This first edition offers a captivating and insightful look into the origins of these beloved folk tales, showcasing their richness and complexity before they were adapted for a wider, more conservative audience.Book Details
