The Bremen Town Musicians

release date: Apr 10, 2019
The Bremen Town Musicians
The Bremen Town Musicians (in German, Die Bremer Stadtmusikanten) is a remarkable fable written in 1812 by the celebrated Brothers Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm. The story tells the wonderful odyssey of a donkey, a dog, a cat and a rooster who are mistreated by their owners and decide to go to the city of Bremen, where they intend to become professional musicians and regain their freedom. This fable symbolizes the story of four peasants who revolt against the feudal regime imposed by their masters, remarkably adapted by the brothers Grimm by transforming human characters into animals. The four animals represent the different social classes; their owners stand for the feudal rulers of the time; and Bremen epitomises a free (Hanseatic) city with no feudalism, the natural place to live free from masters and from slavery. The illustrations of The Bremen Town Musicians are by Annelien Smet, a talented Belgian illustrator based in the city of Ghent, Belgium. With a background from the University of Ghent, she produces illustrations for magazines, newspapers and books worldwide, as well as creative campaigns.

The Complete Brothers Grimm's Fairy Tales
The Brothers Grimm, Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm (1786-1859) were German brothers who remained close friends, and both studied law. While Jacob went on to study philology, Wilhelm wrote. The two of them worked on creating a German dictionary, but it would not be finished until long after they were both dead. The Brothers would be lost to history, except they also collaborated on a collection of 200 fairy tales and published two volumes of them in 1812 and 1814. Although their intention was purely to preserve the material and try to keep the German culture and history alive, their collection proved to be massively popular with young children. The first English translation arrived in 1823, making them a must read for children ever since.
