(The Brothers Grimm)
(0 - 0)
The Brothers Grimm, Jacob Grimm (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 19th century.
They were among the best-known storytellers of folk tales, and popularized stories such as “Cinderella,” “The Frog Prince,” “Hansel and Gretel,” “Rapunzel,” “Rumpelstiltskin,” and “Snow White.”
Their first collection of folk tales, “Children’s and Household Tales,” was published in 1812.
