Grimm's Fairy Tales, collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, is a renowned anthology of traditional folk stories drawn from German oral traditions. First published in the early 19th century, the collection includes famous tales such as "Cinderella," "Snow White," "Hansel and Gretel," "Rapunzel," and "Little Red Riding Hood." These stories often feature magical elements, talking animals, witches, princes, and moral lessons, with characters facing trials that test their courage, cleverness, or virtue.
Unlike the softened versions popular today, the original Grimm tales are often dark and filled with danger, violence, and cautionary themes. They reflect the fears, values, and superstitions of the time, serving as both entertainment and moral instruction. Despite their grim tone, the tales emphasize justice, resilience, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil, making them timeless works of cultural and literary significance.
