I had been hanging out for a book like this for ages, I really wanted to know what was edited. The Turnip princess is next on my list.Spikeabellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00526666426161958415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770811529718101789.post-2857216671773538082015-05-18T09:51:34.052-07:002015-05-18T09:51:34.052-07:00Does the Zipes version contain the original annota...Does the Zipes version contain the original annotations?

It's fun to spot the differences, and discover tales which were taken out in later editions. All Fur is one of my favourite fairy tales, and you're right - in every version the incest theme is very clear, and I always find myself getting confused between the king and the betrothed/fiancé. Whether that's intentional or not I'm not sure, but it certainly makes the story intriguing.<br /><br />Also I agree that we need more than Grimm in bookstores. And by that I don't mean Andersen instead, because he's just as common!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13311936206951108530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770811529718101789.post-80208527986945379002015-05-15T07:17:06.425-07:002015-05-15T07:17:06.425-07:00This book is on my wishlist!

Thanks for the comparisons! So interesting to look at the versions side by side...and as you say, the "sanitization" process is only a way of summarizing what happened to the tales, but can't really capture all of the nuances and details that were changedKristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01097525403940409218noreply@blogger.com
