A classic collection of oral German folklore, Belgium , Irish, Russian,.... brought together for posterity by this epitome of fairy tales includes many of the world’s best known stories. In these dark foreboding woods, you will find: Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin, Lily and the Lion (better known as Beauty and the Beast), and Snow White and Rose Red, among other timeless works.
These tales were later heavily revised and sanitised, but here are presented closer to their grim and beloved originals. In writing these stories, they turned past to give something to the people which would implant in them a love for the beauty and dignity of their country's traditions. The tales tell us about brave and honest heroes who defend the weak and the helpless. They defeat their enemies thanks to their wisdom and might, endurance and diligence.
