The hard facts of the Grimms' fairy tales by 10240871|Maria Tatar book cover

📘 The hard facts of the Grimms' fairy tales
 by Maria Tatar

"Murder, mutilation, cannibalism, infanticide, and incest: the darker side of classic fairly tale figures as the subject matter for this study of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm's Nursery and Household Tales. This updated and expanded second edition includes a new preface and an appendix containing new translations of six tales, along with commentary by Maria Tatar. Throughout the book, Tatar employs the tools not only of a psychoanalyst but also of a folklorist, literary critic, and historian to examine the harsher aspects of these stories. She presents new interpretations of the powerful stories in this book. Few studies have been written in English on these tales, and none has probed their allegedly happy endings so thoroughly."--Jacket.
