There is much talk about spirituality in our days. Many then think of religion or Far Eastern traditions. But why staring into the distance, the good things are often so close?! We think our old German fairy tales do not need to hide their spiritual message. They are our cultural heritage, and they have a great potential that seems timeless and which can still touch the people from young to old. For this reason we have tried to write down some thoughts to inspire parents and grandparents, to read a book of fairy tales again. Maybe it is sometimes more beneficial for us to read the good fairy tales of old times, rather than the bad fairy tales of modern newspapers. You will find in this book the following fairy tales along with our comments and interpretations as well as many colored illustrations to express the symbolism: Jorinda and Joringel Iron John Rapunzel Hansel and Grethel Rumpelstiltskin Mother Holle Little Red-Cap Hans in Luck Godfather Death The Godfather The Story of the Youth who went forth to learn what Fear was One-Eye, Two-Eyes and Three-Eyes The Old Woman in the Wood Faithful John The Wonderful Musician The White Snake The Devil with the Three Golden Hairs The Girl Without Hands Briar-Rose (or Sleeping Beauty)

Reader: beware. Warlocks with dark spells, hunters with deadly aim, and bakers with ovens retrofitted for cooking children lurk within these pages. But if you dare, turn the page and learn the true story of Hansel and Gretel - the story behind (and beyond) the bread crumbs, edible houses and outwitted witches. Come on in. It may be frightening, it's certainly bloody, and it's definitely not for the faint of heart. 'Gidwitz manages to balance the grisly violence of the original Grimms' fairy tales with a wonderful sense of humor and narrative voice. Check it out!' Rick Riordan 'Unlike any children's book I've ever read. [It] holds up to multiple readings, like the classic I think it will turn out to be' New York Times 'An audacious debut that's wicked smart and wicked funny' Publisher's Weekly, starred review 'Addictively compelling' School Library Journal, starred review

Grimms' Fairy Tales is a collection of German folk tales collected and published by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm in two volumes in 1812 and 1815. The book contains over 200 stories that have become some of the most famous and enduring fairy tales in Western culture. The collection includes classic stories such as Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel, Hansel, and Gretel, as well as lesser-known tales like The Golden Bird and The Frog Prince. Many of the stories have become popularized through numerous adaptations, including Disney films. The tales in Grimms' Fairy Tales are often dark and contain elements of violence, cannibalism, and other adult themes. However, they also convey important moral lessons and reflect the cultural values and beliefs of 19th-century Germany. In addition to the tales themselves, the book also includes notes on the origins and sources of each story and commentaries on the stories' cultural significance. The Grimm brothers' work was instrumental in the preservation of German folklore and the development of the modern fairy tale genre.

"Samuel D. Fohr holds that the Grimms' tales are not just childish 'fairy tales', but are filled with spiritual symbolism, and as such have value for adults as well as children. Snow White, for example, is a story of creation and spiritual growth, and its message parallels Hindu and Judaic creation myths. Hansel and Gretel and Cinderella both portray the journey back to God. Fohr also looks at recurring themes in the stories, and answers such questions as: Why are giants always evil and dwarves always good? What is the symbolic significance of the hungry wolf who appears in many stories? Exactly what are genies, and why are they always trapped in bottles? A delightful but serious examination of cherished stories, this book reveals new meaning in familiar tales. Also included is an extensive bibliography and an Appendix on the authenticity of the Grimms' tales."--Publisher's description.

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, Humboldt-University of Berlin (Sprach- und literaturwissenschaftliche Fakultät), course: Writing the term paper, language: English, abstract: In this paper, I will compare some of the original fairy tales with their new versions and analyze how the decrease in violence and brutality affects their meaning. Therefore, I will refer to fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm, such as Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel or Snow White and provide details on how violence contributes positively to the storyline of their fairy tales in general. In addition, I will deal with the change in the depiction of violence in fairy tales and show the consequences that arise from the transformation of their original plot. The role that fairy tales once played is no longer the same today. When the first fairy tales were written, the authors also pursued the intention to convey moral values and virtues in addition to the aspect of entertainment. Therefore, violence and brutality have often been used to warn of possible dangers and emergencies and also to provide a deterrent example of what can happen if someone acts inappropriately. However, the use of violent and brutal acts helped to emphasize the fairy tale's warning role. Thus, fairy tales also positively contributed to the upbringing of children by teaching them how to deal with basic human conflicts, desires, and relationships. As fairy tales have become increasingly interesting to society in recent years, they have been rewritten, turned into movies and also modified or adapted to today's times under different circumstances. Nevertheless, many ideas were lost from the original versions and can no longer convey the same values that they were supposed to in the past. Violence and brutality made an important contribution in the original versions and created an appealing effect for the viewers, which no longer completely exists in its intended form.
