What is The brothers Grimm : from enchanted forests to the modern world about?

<p>Zipes (German, U. of Minnesota) has substantially revised his study of the Brothers Grimm, their lives, work, and the subsequent, often radical, re-interpretation of the fairy tales for which they're known. The fairy tales are described, with attention to their origins and the psychological and social interpretations of the Grimms and later interpreters. A new section discusses the legacy of the Brothers Grimm in Germany since the Berlin wall came down in 1989. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR</p><h3>Meredith Kiger, Ph.D. - Children's Literature</h3><p>This scholarly volume is an updated version by the author, a noted fairy tale and Grimm brothers' authority. According to the author, Fairy tales in their oral, literary, and mass-mediated forms have enabled children and adults to conceive strategies for placing themselves in the world and grasping events around them (pg. 62). Is there anyone in this country who has not been instructed or entertained through the use of fairytales? We have the Grimm brothers of Germany to thank for that. This complex book on Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm critically reviews their scholarly work in collecting and rewriting the peasant tales
