Jacob Grimm
5,750 books2,260 followersGerman philologist and folklorist Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm in 1822 formulated Grimm's Law, the basis for much of modern comparative linguistics. With his brother Wilhelm Karl Grimm (1786-1859), he collected Germanic folk tales and published them as
Grimm's Fairy Tales
(1812-1815).
Indo-European stop consonants, represented in Germanic, underwent the regular changes that Grimm's Law describes; this law essentially states that Indo-European p shifted to Germanic f, t shifted to th, and k shifted to h. Indo-European b shifted to Germanic p, d shifted to t, and g shifted to k. Indo-European bh shifted to Germanic b, dh shifted to d, and gh shifted to g.

Here are the characters in this book:
- seven dwarf brothers who are roommates
- an evil queen who is singularly obsessed with being hot
- a talking mirror with magical powers
- a hunter who resorts to trickery when his job description includes “killing children”
- a prince whose idea of marriage material is “beautiful and asleep”
- a seven year old who’s pretty.
Of all those characters, kind of a bummer that the last one is our main character, but we take the wins with the losses in this life.
I have been into classic fairytales for my entire life, because my idea of a good time was and continues to be reading about personality-less girls with golden hair, dumb men on quests, and creepy small villainous mythical creatures with incredible violent streaks.
This one did not disappoint.
Bottom line: 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarves??? I don’t know her.
-------------
the evil stepmother gets a bad rap, but honestly if a mirror told me that a seven year old was prettier than me i'd feel pretty villainous too.
review to come / 4 stars

eating an apple and taking a long nap honestly sounds really good right now

Magic Mirror on the wall...
ohmygod is that a fucking chin hair?!
Reading this at my age, I see it all in a new light.
So the stepmom tries to kill Snow White because the kid is getting better looking by the day. And you know what? I can't even hate on her for that one.
These young damn women with their taut skin and perky butts?
DEATH TO THEM ALL! <--ignore me, I don't mean that, it's just the menopause talking - sisterhood and all that shit
But I'm betting Snow had been wandering around the castle singing in that squeaky high-pitched voice and talking to fuzzy animals. And here this perimenopausal queen is just wanting a little freaking peace and quiet. It was only a matter of time before the woman snapped and thought to herself: this weird bitch has to go.
I mean, how hard can it be to get rid of one chirpy teenager?
Well, let me tell you, it's harder than it looks.
The poor, beleaguered, middle-aged monarch is first foiled by the lying-ass huntsman who should have had her back, and then by those squirrely dwarves that Snow White takes up with in some hippie commune in the woods.
Queen can't catch a break.
Or so it seems...
Because.
After narrowly avoiding death twice, Snow White then chokes on a magic apple that she should have damn well known not to eat by that point.
And for reasons of plot is subsequently put under glass and on display in the woods by the dwarves.
That one always seemed...odd.
Then along comes true love.
Or at least a prince who falls in love with her beauty, and decides to tote her off - causing the apple to fall out of her mouth.
She pops up like a daisy and immediately marries the guy.
But let's face it, marrying a strange prince who wanted to steal her dead body wasn't even the iffiest thing she'd done up to that point.
Yeah. Take a moment to let that one sink in.
At the end of the day, Snow White is a doofus, the prince is a creep, and my sympathies lie with the hot mess of a witch.
The moral of the story?
Snow White is the patron saint of women who accept drinks from strangers, eat unverified brownies, and climb into white vans.
Do not be a Snow White.

Click here to watch a video review of this book on my channel, From Beginning to Bookend.
In this simple yet gruesome tale by the Brothers Grimm, the beautiful princess Snow White must contend with a jealous stepmother who longs to be the fairest in the land.
First published in 1812, this German fairy tale is not the bright and playful, sing-song tale produced by Walt Disney Productions in 1937. This story of the "child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as the wood of the window frame" is grim, violent, and makes no promise of a happy ending.
The moral of the story is clear: vanity and pride will be one's downfall. The wicked queen is made "green with envy" by Snow White's superior beauty.
Envy and pride grew as fast as weeds in her heart. By day or by night, [the queen] never had a moment's peace.
One could argue, however, that the story suggests being beautiful is important above all else.
Either way, Snow White's story is made more memorable by the inclusion of the hyper-stylized work of artist Camille Rose Garcia. Her pops of brilliant red amidst muted purples and yellows accentuate the eerie vibe of her illustrations that blend a vintage feel with a surrealist look.
The moral of the story is a bit muddy in this gory tale of a beautiful young princess plagued by the envy of her wicked stepmother, but Snow White is nonetheless entertaining - more so because of its vibrant illustrations.

Mom always tells me stories about how I liked movies when I was a kid. An Snow White was one of the movies she had to hide from me. Watching a movie a lot of times is common for kids and it's the time when the parents can relax. Well, not for my parents. For me Snow white was one of the most sad movies. I would cry all the time and scream "OMG! That is so sad! She is alone in the forest! How poor"
After reading it again, after my own "character development" from my own story, I still feel sad. Not because she is alone in the forest, but because Snow White never fights for what she thinks it's right. She is always running away and accepting everything that happens around her. As it's a really old story, we can also see how women was expected to just follow around.
So I get to the conclusion that the awesome character from this story was the evil queen. She was evil? Yes, she wasn't a decent person and she had the magic. But she knew how to fight back.
This book was not the Disney story one. It was the original Grimms' tale where you can see some dark spots around, which I liked more than the Disney happily-ever-after story. Plus this edition has some amazing dark and Gothic illustrations that turned the story much more interesting. It was a quick read but I made sure to stop for some time just to appreciate every detail from the pages. If you like Snow White, or if you don't because of some fairy tale fluffy nonsense parts, try this book. If you don't like it at least you get this gorgeous edition to decorate your shelf :)

I know it’s a fairy tale, and should thus not be taken too seriously, but the pure and utter stupidity of Snow White really got on my nerves so badly. She genuinely had to have had less than a single brain cell, and her passivity and unwillingness to learn were truly astounding.
I’m certain that if she didn’t have her pretty privilege, nobody would have even cared to save her either. Sure, the Queen wouldn’t have had a reason to go after her in the first place, but let’s ignore that for argument’s sake.
Oddly enough, I was actually looking forward to reading this original fairy tale (even though I was never a fan of Snow White’s story), but it was exceedingly disappointing to me due to its complete lack of intelligence and rationale. It’s hard for me to root for a character if they don’t even attempt to save themselves and honestly seem to do everything in their power to make the dumbest possible decisions.
Oh, and the fact that she eventually marries the guy who tried to take her dead corpse to his castle because she was just too damn pretty to never look at again was… disturbing, at best.
P.S. The version I read didn’t have any illustrations, so maybe those could have made this more enjoyable or charming.

Disney have just released an epic boxset featuring all 55 animated classics, it was an instant purchase!
I also like to read the book before watching the movie, so this was a great opportunity to tick off so many great tales.
Quite a few of them are also part of the Rory Gilmore Reading Challenge.
So first up is the one that started it all: Snow White.
Everyone knows that basic story of this fairy tale, a jealous Queen is determined to kill her beautiful stepdaughter Snow White. Seeking sanctuary in the forest, Snow White soon becomes friends with seven dwarfs.
Disney kept pretty faithful to the original source, the only difference is how relentless the stepmother is with the numerous attempts to kill Snow White.
A really quick read, it’s definitely a classic!

A story that is too short but entertaining and the truth is that I prefer this version than Disney's.
I liked the ending they gave to the mother of Snow White.

I own almost 500 books, and this is by far the most beautiful (you don't know how hard it was not to write The Fairest of them All'. Puns).
Every illustration and piece of typography is a work of art. A gothic, creepy work of art.
I'm not sure I've ever read the original story before, I'm obviously more familiar with the Disney version, because this... this is messed up. The kids in the Grimm family must have had some issues.

Benjamin Lacombe este (după umila mea părere) un genial ilustrator al contemporanietății. Stilul său inedit este magie pură, capabil să te desprindă de realitate, transpunându-te într-o altă dimensiune...

This book would get five stars for me for the illustrations alone. This book is a work of art. Page-after-page of stunning, frame-worthy pictures. I almost want to buy a second copy so I can tear it apart and put it on my wall.
The story is one most of us know. Snow White is chased into the woods by her Evil Step-mother, presumed dead and goes to live with seven little men (bit shady!). I don't think I had ever heard this version though. Snow White has multiple attempts (and successes) made on life by the Step-Mother and by the end of it, I just thought they should let Snow White stay dead because she wasn't the brightest young thing.
If you are going to read this, make sure you read this copy. The author is Camilla Rose Gracia and her artwork is stunning. Don't even bother borrowing this one, just buy it. You'll be looking at it again.

O conto é o original escrito pelos irmãos Grimm.
Não gosto muito da Branca de Neve
Nunca gostei e isso não mudou
Mas esta edição é um luxo. As ilustrações de Benjamin Lacombe são simplesmente magníficas

Es tan lindo que no puedo opinar demasiado al respecto, el arte de Benjamin Lacombe me deja sin palabras. La clásica historia de los hermanos Grimm, ilustrada por uno de mis artistas favoritos. No podría pedir más.

La historia es la de siempre, así que no hay mucho que opinar,lo que destaca acá es el maravilloso arte de Lacombe. No puedo dejar de ver los hermosos dibujos, cada ilustración es mejor que la otra. Me declaro fan de Benjamín Lacombe.
HERMOSO.
HERMOSO.
December 27, 2015
Seriously: Snow White is the silliest character I've ever met. How could you be so naive despite all dwarves' warnings? And MOST OF ALL : how could you consent to marry someone you knew for a second only because he tells you that he has feelings for you? Are you that narcissic? (that prince is also very dumb since he never talked to her - he was just barely looking at a dead mannequin?!)
Ew. Next.
Ew. Next.

5 stars for the art but only 1 for the story .I know it’s a children’s book but I feel that no effort was put into writing something even slightly original. But the art, the art is everything!

Entretenido cuento clásico infantil de los hermanos Grimm que tiene unas magníficas ilustraciones de Benjamin Lacombe.
No creo que haya alguién que no conozca este cuento, en el cual la madrasta de Blancanieves intenta deshacerse de ésta para ser la más bella de todo el reino.

First of all, Snow White is an idiot. Dude, STOP OPENING THE DAMN DOOR!
But I love the Brothers Grimm's stories and it was a pleasure to read.
The artwork is so eerie, a little creepy, and yet gorgeous. A ton of thanks to my best friend for gifting me this much-desired copy of the book.

un cuento que no pasa de moda sobre la envidia, el amor, el horror de la brujería, la amistad, y sobre todo La Providencia
June 25, 2016
Sin duda para mi este es el trabajo más bello de Benjamín Lacombe, junto con Ondina. Es precioso, atemporal y expresivo, de gran fuerza evocadora, pero al mismo tiempo poseen algo aterrador e inquietante. De verdad, a pesar de que el cuento no incluye la crueldad del original, Benjamín, de todas formas, logra atrapar le oscuridad que subyace en él.
La ilustración de Blancanieves siempre me ha cautivado, porque me parece preciosa y delicada, sobre todo en la foto que está arriba de este párrafo. Considero que su espíritu y su figura están super bien captada, tanto e las imágenes coloridas como en las sepia que aparecen intercaladas en le libro. Amo las de Blanca Nieves recostada sobre la nieve (reiteración xD!) y en su ataúd, me parecen conmovedoras...

This is in my fairy tale collection at home and it is my FAVORITE fairy tale illustrated story. I've seen many Snow White illustrated books but the artwork by Charles Santore of the story of Snow White is my personal favorite. Truth be told, I read all my books on the computer, telephone, or tablet and I'm not big on having a huge library taking up space in my house. That being said, I do have a huge leather bound collection and a small fairy tale collection. I feel that it is important to have some of my personal favorite books at hand and I couldn't be without this one.
This is the story of a beautiful princess that is as white as snow, hence her name, and thus her wicked step mother is very envious of her beauty and pursues the death of the beautiful young maiden. Snow White retreats into the woods and lives with little dwarfs but eventually is cursed by the evil queen. It is one of my favorite fairy tales of hexes, poison, and the power of love.

J’ai décidé de lire les contes classiques en français et j’ai commencé avec Blanche-Neige (la version pour les enfants haha). Je veux améliorer mon français le plus que possible parce que je veux parler avec la confiance. (Je peux parler couramment mais c’est difficile de parler avec les francophones). Cette histoire était vraiment courte mais j’ai aimé quand même :) Je vais absolument lire les autres contes par Charles Perrault.
I decided to read the classic fairytales in French and I started with Snow White (the kids version). I want to ameliorate my French as much as possible because I want to speak with confidence. (I can speak French fluently but it’s difficult to speak with native French speakers). The story was really short but I liked it all the same. I will absolutely read the other fairytales by Charles Perrault.

Who doesn't love an old fashioned fairytale? Admittedly a little more gruesome in its original version, but I loved reading this classic!
My favorite actress portraying Snow White in motion picture...
