About this product

Product Information

The Complete Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm Perhaps no other stories possess as much power to enchant, delight, and surprise as those penned by the immortal Brothers Grimm. Now, in the new, expanded third edition, renowned scholar and folklorist Jack Zipes has translated all 250 tales collected and published by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, plus twenty-nine rare tales omitted from the original German edition, as well as narratives uncovered in the brothers' letters and papers. Truly the most comprehensive translation to date, this critically acclaimed edition recaptures the fairy tales as the Brothers Grimm intended them to be- rich, stark, spiced with humor and violence, resonant with folklore and song. One of the world's experts on children's literature, Jack Zipes is a professor of German at the University of Minnesota and is the author of numerous books on folklore and fairy tales.

The book was in a bit rougher condition than I was expecting, but I got my book fairly quickly and it was the book I wanted. Overall, a very good experience.

  • Complete Farietales of the Brothers Grim...

    I decided to buy this book because I went to the library and checked it out. I started reading it and fell in love with the book and just had to have it. I liked the fact that I could read one tale everynight before bed to my little sister and this also gave me good dreams and thoughts too. I would recomend this book to children mostly, but if you are an adult who has the heart and dreams of a child, then this book really is for you! I hope others enjoy this book as much as I did, for you see I am sad it is over...

  • Good!

    It's great to see how a couple of brothers from 200 years ago saw the world.

  • Historical

    It is interesting to see where some of our current fairy tales come from. These are not children's stories.
