Hansel and Gretel: Fairy Tales and Legends
19.99 €
Along a path strewn with breadcrumbs, we'll journey into a world of fairy tales and legends, mysterious and a little frightening, like a dense forest. From Hansel and Gretel, we'll learn not to give up in the most hopeless situations; from the Bremen Town Musicians, we'll learn the value of friendship and mutual support; from the Brave Little Tailor, we'll gain courage and resourcefulness; and with Snow White, we'll see that kindness and a pure heart always triumph over evil and treachery.
Folk tales and legends, passed down orally by generations of Germans, were meticulously and lovingly collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. It's no coincidence that their collection, Children's and Family Tales, is included in the UNESCO Memory of the World Heritage List as a unique example of the preservation of German cultural traditions.
The expressive graphics of German and English artists allow one to immerse oneself in an atmosphere of adventure and the inevitable triumph of good over evil. Artist Philipp Groth-Johann called his illustrations for the deluxe edition of fairy tales his life's work. The elegant color illustrations by Karl Offterdinger and Alexander Zick capture the spirit of the times and the fairy tales themselves, enchanting and at times harsh.
"Man receives from his homeland a guardian angel who accompanies him throughout life—an inexhaustible treasure of fairy tales, sagas, and stories." Brothers Grimm
