About Snow White
The classic fairy tale Snow White has its origins in Germanic folklore, and has existed in many different forms across Europe. It was first presented by the Brothers Grimm in their Children’s and Household Tales, published in the early 19th century. It tells the story of a beautiful and virtuous princess and her wicked, jealous stepmother who will stop at nothing to ensure that she, and not Snow White, is the fairest in all the land. Snow White‘s popularity has not diminished in the years since it was first published, and the story has been adapted many times for a range of different mediums.
About the Brothers Grimm
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, better known as the Brothers Grimm, were German authors and linguists who were fascinated by all aspects of Germanic culture. They immortalized Germanic oral folklore in popular culture through their written accounts of tales such as Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, The Musicians of Bremen and The Brave Little Tailor. They also produced new versions of fairy tales that were already famous, including Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast and Little Red Riding Hood. They are among the best-known tellers of fairy tales, and many of their stories remain hugely popular today.
