About The Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales Grimm's Fairy Tales was first published in 1812 by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. The first volume of the first edition was published in 1812, containing 86 stories; the second volume of 70 stories followed in 1815. For the second edition, two volumes were issued in 1819 and a third in 1822, totalling 170 tales. The third edition appeared in 1837; fourth edition, 1840; fifth edition, 1843; sixth edition, 1850; seventh edition, 1857. Stories were added, and also subtracted, from one edition to the next, until the seventh held 211 tales. All editions were extensively illustrated, first by Philipp Grot Johann and, after his death in 1892, by German illustrator Robert Leinweber. 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 to her stepmother her pregnancy and the prince's visits—but, in many respects, violence, particularly when punishing villains, was increased.In 1825, the Brothers published their Kleine Ausgabe or "small edition", a selection of 50 tales designed for child readers. This children's version went through ten editions between 1825 and 1858.

Excerpt from Grimm's Complete Fairy TalesLong ago, when wishes often came true, there lived a King Whose daughters were all handsome, but the youngest was so beautiful that the sun himself, who has seen everything, was bemused every time he shone over her because of her beauty. Near the royal castle there was a great dark wood, and in the wood under an old linden tree was a well; and when the day was hot, the Kings daughter used to go forth into the wood and sit by the brink of the cool well, and if the time seemed long, she would take out a golden ball, and throw it up and catch it again, and this was her favorite pastime.Now it happened one day that the golden ball, instead of falling back into the maiden's little hand which had sent it aloft, dropped to the ground near the edge of the well and rolled in. The King's daughter followed it with her eyes as it sank, but the well was deep, so deep that the bottom could not be seen. Then she began to weep, and she wept and wept as if she could never be comforted.And in the midst of her weeping she heard a voice saying to her, What ails you, King' 3 daughter? Your tears would melt a heart of stone.And when she looked to see where the voice came from, there was nothing but a frog stretching his thick ugly head out of the water. Oh, is it you, old waddler? Said she; I weep because my golden ball has fallen into the well.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

GRIMMS FAIRY TALESByThe Brothers GrimmChildren'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 English as Grimm's Fairy Tales.The influence of these books was widespread. W. H. Auden praised the collection during World War II as one of the founding works of Western culture. The tales themselves have been put to many uses. Hitler praised them as folkish tales showing children with sound racial instincts seeking racially pure marriage partners, and so strongly that the Allied forces warned against them; for instance, Cinderella with the heroine as racially pure, the stepmother as an alien, and the prince with an unspoiled instinct being able to distinguish. Writers who have written about the Holocaust have combined the tales with their memoirs, as Jane Yolen in her Briar Rose.ContentsTHE GOLDEN BIRDHANS IN LUCKJORINDA AND JORINDELTHE TRAVELLING MUSICIANSOLD SULTANTHE STRAW, THE COAL, AND THE BEANBRIAR ROSETHE DOG AND THE SPARROWTHE TWELVE DANCING PRINCESSESTHE FISHERMAN AND HIS WIFETHE WILLOW-WREN AND THE BEARTHE FROG-PRINCECAT AND MOUSE IN PARTNERSHIPTHE GOOSE-GIRLTHE ADVENTURES OF CHANTICLEER AND PARTLETRAPUNZELFUNDEVOGELTHE VALIANT LITTLE TAILORHANSEL AND GRETELTHE MOUSE, THE BIRD, AND THE SAUSAGEMOTHER HOLLELITTLE RED-CAP [LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD]THE ROBBER BRIDEGROOMTOM THUMBRUMPELSTILTSKINCLEVER GRETELTHE OLD MAN AND HIS GRANDSONTHE LITTLE PEASANTFREDERICK AND CATHERINESWEETHEART ROLANDSNOWDROPTHE PINKCLEVER ELSIETHE MISER IN THE BUSHASHPUTTELTHE WHITE SNAKETHE WOLF AND THE SEVEN LITTLE KIDSTHE QUEEN BEETHE ELVES AND THE SHOEMAKERTHE JUNIPER-TREETHE TURNIPCLEVER HANSTHE THREE LANGUAGESTHE FOX AND THE CATTHE FOUR CLEVER BROTHERSLILY AND THE LIONTHE FOX AND THE HORSETHE BLUE LIGHTTHE RAVENTHE GOLDEN GOOSETHE WATER OF LIFETHE TWELVE HUNTSMENTHE KING OF THE GOLDEN MOUNTAINDOCTOR KNOWALLTHE SEVEN RAVENSTHE WEDDING OF MRS FOXTHE SALADTHE STORY OF THE YOUTH WHO WENT FORTH TO LEARN WHAT FEAR WASKING GRISLY-BEARDIRON HANSCAT-SKINSNOW-WHITE AND ROSE-RED
