Most of the fairy tales that we grew up with we know thanks to the Brothers Grimm. Jack Zipes, one of our surest guides through the world of fairy tales and their criticism, takes behind the romantics mythology of the wandering brothers. Bringing to bear his own critical expertise, as well as new biographical information, Zipes examines the interaction between the Grimms' lives and their work. He reveals the Grimms' personal struggle to overcome social prejudice and poverty, as well as their political efforts - as scholars and civil servant - toward unifying the German states. By deftly interweaving the social, political, and personal elements of the lives of the Brothers Grimm, Zipes rescues them from sentimental obscurity. No longer figures in fairy tale, the Brothers Grimm emerge as powerful creators, real men who established the fairy tale as one of our great literary institutions. Part biography, part critical assessment, part social history, the Brothers Grimm provides a complex and very real story about fairy tales and the modern world.

The famous fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm - stories like Snow White , Red Riding Hood , and Rumplestiltskin - are know to millions of people around the world and are deeply embedded in the collective psyche. In this charming account, writer and scholar Valerie Paradiz reveals the true story of how the fairy tales came to be. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, collectors and editors of more than 200 folk stories, were major German intellects of the nineteenth century, contemporaries of Goethe and Schiller. But as Paradiz reveals here, the romantic image of the two brothers traveling the countryside, transcribing tales told to them by peasants, is a far cry from the truth. In fact, more than half the...

Il était une fois, en Allemagne, deux frères, Wilhelm et Jacob Grimm : ils écoutaient les merveilleux récits des conteuses, lors des veillées au coin du feu, et les ont transcrits. Vous allez découvrir, grâce à eux, des histoires étonnantes : une méchante fée transforme un jeune roi en grenouille ; une autre attire Hänsel et Gretel dans sa délicieuse maison de pain d'épices pour les manger rôtis ; un jeune cabri sauve ses frères dévorés tout rond par un loup ; la marâtre jalouse de Blanche Neige cherche par tous les moyens à l'évincer ; un petit tailleur plein d'astuce triomphe de géants et devient roi ; trois étranges fées assurent le bonheur d'une jeune fille paresseuse mais fidèle à sa parole ; des animaux musiciens terrorisent de dangereux brigands ; un vieil homme retrouve sa dignité grâce à son petit-fils... Bibliocollège propose : • le texte intégral annoté de huit contes, • des questionnaires au fil du texte, • des documents iconographiques exploités, • une présentation des frères Grimm et de leur époque, • un aperçu du genre du conte, • un groupement de textes : « Sorcières du XXe siècle ».
