Brothers Grimm (Authors)

The Brothers Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm, were German scholars and folklorists best known for collecting and popularizing traditional folk and fairy tales in the early 19th century. Their famous works include stories like "Cinderella," "Snow White," and "Hansel and Gretel." Initially, they aimed to preserve German oral traditions and culture, but their tales also reflected deeper moral lessons. Over time, their stories have gained the status of classic literature, influencing countless adaptations in books, movies, and culture. Their legacy is a rich tapestry of storytelling that explores human experiences, values, and the imagination.
