Fifty-nine tales collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm fill this hardcover edition, among them Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin, Hansel and Grethel, Little Red Riding Hood and The Golden Goose.
The brothers worked as linguists and cultural researchers, setting the stories down close to the way they heard them rather than smoothing the rough edges, and that plainness is part of why the collection has lasted two centuries. This volume opens with an introduction from Lori Campbell, a scholar of fantasy literature, and includes a timeline placing the brothers in their period. More than a hundred drawings by Arthur Rackham run through the text, and the book appears in the Chartwell Classics series of jacketed hardcovers.
What comes with this edition:
• Fifty-nine tales gathered in one jacketed hardcover volume
• Over a hundred Arthur Rackham drawings accompanying the stories
• An opening essay from the fantasy scholar Lori Campbell
• A timeline setting the Grimm brothers against their historical period
For families reading aloud, students of folklore and collectors building a classics shelf, published in the Chartwell Classics series and available at Boipoka.
