Die dunklen Originale: Grimms Märchen vor der Entschärfung

Grimm's Fairy Tales in their original form: In the first edition of 1812, it is Snow White's own mother who orders the murder—not her stepmother. This documentary reveals what was truly written in the Brothers Grimm's first collection of fairy tales, why Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm rewrote their texts edition after edition—and in which instances they actually made the fairy tales harsher rather than gentler. 📕 THE CHANNEL'S ENCYCLOPEDIA: More than 1,000 entries on authors, works, and eras – clearly presented, with open sources, and freely accessible: https://meisterwerke-der-worte.de Here's the direct link to the Brothers Grimm in the encyclopedia: https://meisterwerke-der-worte.de/lex... ⏰ CHAPTERS: 00:00 - Intro 00:55 - Introduction 02:27 - A Book Never Intended for Children 06:25 - When Wicked Mothers Were Still Mothers 09:53 - Rapunzel and the Tell-Tale Clothes 13:02 - The Vanished Fairy Tales 16:44 - What Became Harsher Instead of Milder 20:30 - Why the Brothers Rewritten 25:15 - Conclusion 📚 WORK INFORMATION: Title: Children's and Household Tales Publisher: Brothers Grimm (Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm) First edition: Volume 1 – 1812, Volume 2 – 1815 (Realschulbuchhandlung, Berlin; Publisher Georg Andreas Reimer) Initial print run of Volume 1: 900 copies, 86 fairy tales Small edition: 1825 (50 selected, illustrated fairy tales) Final edition: 1857 (200 fairy tales and 10 children's legends) Genre: Fairy tale collection, folk literature, literary history 📖 BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE VIDEO: Brothers Grimm – Children's and Household Tales according to the first edition of 1812/1815 (ed.
