    In the 19th century, two German brothers named Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm collected the oral folklore of their country and published it in two volumes. The fairy tales contained within these books became pillars of popular culture. We're most familiar with the Walt Disney versions of these tales, little knowing that Disney altered the originals to mak...

    In the story we all know, Cinderella attends the ball with the help of her fairy godmother. She flees before the spell expires at midnight but leaves behind a glass slipper that the besotted prince discovers. He determines to find the woman whose foot fits the slipper. In the original version, Cinderella's evil stepmother attempts to disguise her t...

    Many already suspect that the Big Bad Wolf is a parable for those who prey on children, but few know how misogynistic the original tale is.

A man receives a magical fiddle that causes anyone in earshot to dance so long as the fiddle plays. Along the path, he encounters a bearded Jew gazing at a bird. The fiddler kills the bird and then commands the Jew to...

    The story begins in the way we recognise, with long-haired Rapunzel imprisoned in a tower by an evil witch. She lets down her hair so the handsome prince can climb the tower and woo her. However, in the original version, the prince impregnates her. The witch finds out and banishes Rapunzel to the desert, where she wanders the wilderness, struggling...
