For readers of all ages, two hundred and ten tales of the Brothers Grimm, including "Cinderella," "Sleeping Beauty," "Snow White," and "Hansel and Gretel," translated by Ralph Manheim, the highly acclaimed and prize-winning translator. Manheim has rediscovered in the original German Grimms’ editions of the tales the unadorned, direct rhythm of the oral form in which they were first recorded. He has retained their ageless magic and mythology and restored the extraordinary vitality and wit, the acute perceptions of human strength and facility mirrored in the facets of these small gems. “The best modern translation of the complete Brothers Grimm.”--Choice

The stories of magic and myth gathered by the Brothers Grimm have become part of the way children—and adults—learn about the vagaries of the real world. Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow-White, Hänsel and Gretel, Little Red-Cap (Little Red Riding Hood), and Briar-Rose (Sleeping Beauty) are only a few of the more than two hundred enchanting characters included in this volume. The tales are presented just as Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm originally set them down: bold, primal, just frightening enough, and endlessly engaging.

Terrifying tales and perilous pop-ups at their finest! We all know the stories--or do we? We know who Snow White is, but what about Rapunzel? Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were well-known nineteenth-century German storytellers, academics, linguists, and cultural researchers who did not hold back in their telling of terrifying tales, including parables and fables designed to teach and entertain readers of all ages. And now, with specially designed pop-ups, each story comes to life! * This elegant and enchantingly illustrated edition is great for adults with a childlike sense of wonder. * The Illustrated Grimm’s Fairy Tales contains eight unabridged stories of enlightenment complete with spooky pop-ups. * Included are "Cinderella (Aschenputtel)," "The Frog Prince," "Hansel and Gretel," "Little Red Cap," "Rapunzel," "Sleeping Beauty," "The Six Swans," and "Snow White." The Illustrated Grimm’s Fairy Tales is perfect for the short story lover, and offers many entertaining tales to delight--and fright--literature lovers.

"The essays address the reception of the Grimms' texts by their readers; the dynamics between Grimms' collection and its earliest audiences; and aspects of the literary, philosophical, creative, and oral reception of the tales, illuminating how writers, philosophers, artists, and storytellers have responded to, reacted to, and revised the stories, thus shedding light on the ways in which past and contemporary transmitters of culture have understood and passed on the Grimms' tales."--BOOK JACKET.
