Dealing with the most translated work of German literature, the Tales of the brothers Grimm (1812-1815), this book discusses their history, notably in relation to Denmark and subsequently other nations from 1816 to 1986. The Danish intelligentsia responded enthusiastically to the tales and some were immediately translated into Danish by a nobleman and by the foremost Romantic poet. Their renditions remained in print for a century and embued the tales with high prestige. This book discusses translators, approaches, and other parameters such as copyright, and changes in target audiences. The tales’ social acceptability inspired Hans Christian Andersen to write his celebrated fairytales. Combined, the Grimm and Andersen tales came to constitute the ‘international fairytale’.This genre was born in processes of translation and, today, it is rooted more firmly in the world of translation than in national literatures. This book thus addresses issues of interest to literary, cross-cultural studies and translation.

Excerpt from The First Book of History: For Children and Youth Among the multitude of books for juvenile instruction, there are not a few of an historical nature; but it is remarkable that History is not an universal, nor even a general study in our common schools. This cannot arise from any want of adaptation in the subject itself, to the purposes of instruction; on the contrary, it is manifest that it is peculiarly adapted to these purposes. We do not mean to say this of history as it has been generally treated; for most school books of this kind are but little more than extended chronological tables, and offer nothing to the reader but a tedious mass of dates, and general observations. Such works may be useful to people of mature age, but they neither amuse, nor instruct the class of readers, for whom they are designed. But of all reading, there is none that so readily attracts the attention, and lays hold of the sympathy of children and youth, as lively narratives of the enterprises, adventures, dangers, trials, successes and failures of mankind, and these it is the business of History to display. Books which treat of the works of nature and art, which exhibit geographical details, observations upon natural history, and natural philosophy - any, or all of these will be immediately thrown aside by a child left to his choice, for a book of stories, delineating events, in connexion with the developement of human passions. If then history, when properly treated, is one of the most attractive of all studies, why is it not regularly taught in all our schools? It is not because it is deemed less useful than other studies; "the proper study of mankind is man," and it cannot be entered upon too soon. After possessing a knowledge of religion, and the duties we owe to God and our neighbour, history is the most important of all studies. It relates to us what has been done by mankind, and thus teaches us what they may do. It acquaints us with the true character of our race, and enables us to know ourselves better. It apprizes us of the existence of evil, and the way to shun it; it acquaints us with the existence of good, and shows us how to attain it. It cannot be, therefore, that the limited use of history in our schools, is owing to an idea that it is useless. The fact must arise from the want of historical books, written in a style which shall render them both interesting and profitable. Such at least is the conviction of the author of this volume; and believing that a first book of History for general use in our schools is much to be desired, he has undertaken, and now offers to the public, the present volume. In preparing it, two things have been had in view. In the first place it should be useful; and in the second place to make it useful it must be entertaining. To accomplish these ends, the book is provided with maps, and before the pupil enters upon the history of any state or country, he is to learn from them, its shape, boundaries, rivers, shores, &c. He is then briefly made acquainted with its present state, its towns, and cities, and the occupations of its inhabitants. These geographical details are conveyed to the pupil, by narrating supposed travels through various countries, hi which he takes a part. The pupil, being thus acquainted with the present condition of a country, is then told its history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

World War I was a bloodletting so vast and unprecedented that for a generation it was known simply as the Great War. Casualty lists reached unimagined proportions as the same ground -- places like Ypres and the Somme -- was fought over again and again. Other major bloody battles remain vivid in memory to this day: Gallipoli and the Battle of Jutland are but two examples. Europe was at war with itself, and the effect on Western civilization was profound, its repercussions felt even today. World War I saw the introduction of modern technology into the military arena: The tank, airplane, machine gun, submarine, and -- most lethal of all -- poison gas, all received their first widespread use. Professor Stokesbury analyzes these technological innovations and the war's complex military campaigns in lucid detail. At the same time he discusses the great political events that unfolded during the war, such as the Russian Revolution and the end of the Hapsburg dynasty, putting the social and political side of the war into the context of modern European history. A Short History of World War I is the first history of this war to be written in twenty years. It incorporates recent research and current thinking about the war in a highly readable and lively style.

Originally published in 1919, this early work by legendary English author H. G. Wells is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. Its 667 pages contain a wealth of information on the history of humanity and include chapters on The First Civilisations, The Languages of Mankind, The Greeks and the Persians and much more. This ambitious and fascinating work was written by Wells in response to the poor textbooks of his time and is thoroughly recommended for those interested in the history of Man. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

This edition makes available an entirely new version of Hegel's lectures on the development and scope of world history. Volume I presents Hegel's surviving manuscripts of his introduction to the lectures and the full transcription of the first series of lectures (1822-23). These works treat the core of human history as the inexorable advance towards the establishment of a political state with just institutions-a state that consists of individuals with a free and fully-developed self-consciousness. Hegel interweaves major themes of spirit and culture-including social life, political systems, commerce, art and architecture, religion, and philosophy-with an historical account of peoples, dates, and events. Following spirit's quest for self-realization, the lectures presented here offer an imaginative voyage around the world, from the paternalistic, static realm of China to the cultural traditions of India; the vast but flawed political organization of the Persian Empire to Egypt and then the Orient; and the birth of freedom in the West to the Christian revelation of free political institutions emerging in the medieval and modern Germanic world. Brown and Hodgson's new translation is an essential resource for the English reader, and provides a fascinating account of the world as it was conceived by one of history's most influential philosophers. The Editorial Introduction surveys the history of the texts and provides an analytic summary of them, and editorial footnotes introduce readers to Hegel's many sources and allusions. For the first time an edition is made available that permits critical scholarly study, and translates to the needs of the general reader.
