| | Brothers Grimm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A modern editor of the Brothers Grimm and interpreter of the fairy tales tradition is Jack Zipes. | | | The most prolific writer on Grimm's fairy tales in Germany today is Eugen Drewermann who has interpreted more than twenty of the tales psychologically as stories that speak about various struggles on our way to become and to be fully human. | | | The Brothers Grimm (Gebrüder Grimm) are Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, German professors best known for publishing collections of authentic folk tales and fairy tales. |

| | Though the Grimms made important discoveries in their research on ancient German literature and customs, they were neither the founders of folklore as a study in Germany, nor were they the first to begin collecting and publishing folk and fairy tales. | | | The efforts made by folklorists to categorize the Grimms' tales after the nineteenth century were complicated by the fact that numer- ous German folklorists used the tales to explain ancient German customs and rituals, under the assumption that the tales were authentic documents of the German people. | | | Curiously, most of the critics and most of the introductions to the English translations of the Grimms' tales say very little about the brothers themselves or their methods for collecting the tales-- as though the Grimms were incidental to their tales. |

| | The connection between E.C. and Grimms was finally made explicit with the recurring E.C. "Grim Fairy Tale," which were gory riffs on classic fairy tale themes. | | | In a Grimms’ fairy tale, the characters tend to be indistinct and vague, but this was done to allow the "Mother Geese" of the world to fill in the blanks with their own inflections, grins, shouts, and gestures. | | | The manifestations of the Grimms and their myriad descendents are many, but because the tales are mostly message-free, they are all too easily filled with agenda. |

| | Grimms Law - Columbia Encyclopedia® article about Grimms Law |
| | Grimm's law shows that the classical voiceless stops (k,t,p) became voiceless aspirates (h,th,f) in English and mediae (h,d,f) in German, e.g., the initial sounds of Latin pater, English father, German Vater, and in the middle of Latin frater, English brother, German Bruder. | | | Grimm's law, principle of relationships in Indo-European languages, first formulated by Jakob Grimm in 1822 and a continuing subject of interest and investigation to 20th-century linguists. | | | The first sound shift, affecting both English and German, was from the early phonetic positions documented in the ancient, or classical, Indo-European languages (Sanskrit, Greek, Latin) to those still evident in the Low German languages, including English; the second shift affected only the High German languages, e.g., standard German. |

| | In the Grimms' hands, cruel mothers became nasty stepmothers, unmarried lovers were made chaste, and the incestuous father was recast as the devil. | | | The Grimm tales feature many spinners, most famously in "Rumpelstiltskin," in which a poor miller's daughter, ordered by a king to spin straw into gold—failure means death, success a royal marriage—enlists the aid of a devilish little man, Rumpelstiltskin. | | | The Grimms' texts have undergone so many adaptations and translations, often with the intent of censoring objectionable material such as the violence meted out to villains or of making the themes more relevant to contemporary tastes, that most of us know them only in their sanitized versions. |

| | The Grimms are not interested in the reader’s survival or even storytelling as an art form, but rather in conveying their own message and passing their own judgments through the socially pervasive medium of fairy tales. | | | The Grimms have no intention of advancing fairy tales as a pure art form, but rather use their edited stories as a soapbox upon which to preach a new message of class subservience and vulnerability. | | | When the Grimms pass on a lesson in a story, it is not in the spirit of survival or education but rather in the spirit of condemnation and judgement. |

| | The Grimms' fairy tales also cover a wider spectrum, including trickster tales and folk tales that include no magic at all (e.g., "Clever Gretel") as well as holy legends. | | | Unlike the fairy tales of Basile and Perrault, the Grimms' tales much more frequently feature genuine peasant heroes or heroines, and often show the royalty as duplicitous in relation to the lower classes, making them much more class-conscious than their predecessors. | | | Other scholars express a more charitable view, such as that of Linda Degh, who says that the Grimms' tales reinforce earlier (folk) narratives but adapt them to a standardized style and ideology and suggests that the tales needed some rewriting to get the attention of a more educated, intellectual audience. |

| | FT January 2001: Fragments of Ancient Faith |
| | The Grimm fairy tales, he tells us in The Owl, The Raven, and the Dove, are profound religious tales suffused with “a diachronic ecumenical spirituality woven around love and faith.” As such, they reflect in particular the religious interests of Wilhelm Grimm (1786—1859), the frailer and more romantic of the brothers. | | | The Grimms gathered their stories from oral traditions, but this does not mean that the stories emerged in pristine form from the Ur—soil of German myth; some circulated as long ago as ancient Egypt, while others made their way to Germany via the elegant French tales of Charles Perrault. | | | According to Murphy, Wilhelm held that fairy tales are “fragments of ancient faith whose purpose was to awaken the feelings of the human heart.” Where these fragments originated is a complicated matter; it is nearly impossible to trace a fairy tale to its source. |

| | The Grimms kept revising these tales in seven different editions to make them relevant to the experiences of the German people, especially young readers, during the nineteenth century. | | | In fact, there is scarcely a child, storyteller, or folklorist in the twentieth century, who has not been influenced by the Grimms' tales in some way or another. | | | his story of "Ashpet," based on "Cinderella," is a good example of how Davenport Americanizes a Grimms' fairy tale by retaining the universal struggle to prove one's self-worth, at the same time reshaping and re-invigorating the tale to respond to a contemporary context. |
