      Ausgewaehlte Maerchen [Selected Fairy Tales]
          Ausgewaehlte Maerchen [Selected Fairy Tales]
              The Brothers Grimm 'watched the people in the mouth' and faithfully wrote down what the fairytale woman said. This is how many people imagine fairy tales to be. It wasn't like that. The Grimms often intervened radically in the texts, smoothed them out, rebuilt them and expanded them.
