The Story of Hansel and Gretel – & Other Tales By The Brothers Grimm is a fantastic collection of stories, decorated with Arthur Rackham’s splendid illustrations. Included, are such well-known and loved stories as ‘The Frog Prince’, ‘Hansel and Gretel’, ‘The Valiant Little Tailor’, ‘Cinderella’, ‘Snow White’, and ‘Rumpelstiltskin’. The Brothers Grimm (or Die Brüder Grimm), Jacob (1785–1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (1786–1859), were German academics, linguists, cultural researchers, lexicographers and authors – who together specialized in collecting and publishing folklore during the nineteenth century. The popularity of their collected tales has endured well; they have been translated into more than 100 languages, and remain in print in the present day. This edition of the Brothers Grimm’s Fairy Tales is accompanied throughout by a series of dazzling colour and black and white illustrations – by a master of the craft; Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). One of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration (which encompassed the years from 1850 until the start of the First World War), Rackham’s artistry is quite simply, unparalleled. Throughout his career, he developed a unique style, combining haunting humour with dream-like romance. Presented alongside the text, his illustrations further refine and elucidate the Brothers Grimm’s enchanting narratives.

Les “Contes merveilleux” de Jakob et Wilhelm Grimm, souvent appelés “Les Contes des frères Grimm”, constituent une collection emblématique de contes folkloriques et de légendes populaires allemands. Le premier tome a été publié en 1812 et a été suivi de plusieurs éditions et d’ajouts au fil des ans. Cette anthologie comprend des histoires célèbres telles que “Cendrillon”, “Hansel et Gretel”, “Blanche-Neige” et “Le Petit Chaperon Rouge”. Les contes des frères Grimm sont caractérisés par leur mélange de magie, de morale et d’enseignements sur la condition humaine. Ils explorent des thèmes universels tels que le bien contre le mal, la ruse, la pauvreté, la richesse et l’amour, tout en mettant en avant la sagesse populaire et les traditions orales. Les frères Grimm ont recueilli ces histoires à partir de récits transmis oralement, en s’efforçant de préserver l’authenticité et la richesse de la culture populaire allemande. Leur œuvre a eu un impact considérable sur la littérature enfantine et a inspiré de nombreuses adaptations, notamment dans le cinéma et le théâtre.
