Jacob Grimm

Grimm's Fairy Tales Jacob Grimm

Grimm's Fairy Tales is a collection of German fairy tales first published in 1812 by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. The work of the Brothers Grimm influenced other collectors, both inspiring them to collect tales and leading them to similarly believe, in a spirit of romantic nationalism, that the fairy tales of a country were particularly representative of it, to the neglect of cross-cultural influence. This book includes ALL Grimm's fairy tales and 10 children's legends. The Margaret Hunt's translation is very true to the German original.
