A world of fairy tales, teaching morals from often “Grimm” stories
4
Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm Born on January 4, 1785 Died on September 20, 1863 Wilhelm Grimm Born on February 24, 1786 Died on December 16, 1859
5
The brothers were born in the Hessian province of Haunau, Germany Their father was a lawyer and the town clerk, however he died when Jakob was only eleven. Their family was then raised by strict guidelines of the reformed faith (might’ve been a branch of Protestanism)
6
The brothers then went on to follow in their father’s footsteps. They studied law at the University of Manburg Jakob enjoyed learning about the past and studied under Friedrich Savigny in Roman law Even though the brothers were extremely close, Jakob went with Savigny to Paris in 1805 to help him out with his work on Roman law. Jakob then became skilled at reading old manuscripts And soon became interested in medieval poetry
7
The brothers realized that they missed each other while Jakob was in Paris. So in 1808, Jakob becomes the private librarian to the King of Westphalia, Jerome. Jakob and Wilhelm then worked together, even though Wilhelm was often sick from asthma Once the new ruler of Hesse took the thrown, Jakob was out of a job. So he and Wilhelm became the second librarian and secretary, respectively, in Kassel.
8
Romanticism Poetry and prose flourished during this time Authors incorporated tales from older times and kept them alive. Women began writing under aliases Amandine Aurore Lucie Dupin a.k.a George Sands became a well known romantic writer. Many writers, musicians, and poets turned back to nature rather than science and were inspired by everyday things, rather then science.
9
A once cherished little girl is left to wait on her evil step-mother and step-sisters Her pious being, allowed her to get the prince. By asking for a simple branch from her father, she was able to get three gowns and beautiful glass slippers. When one slipper was lost, one sister had to lose a toe, and the other lost part of her heel. When it was finally Cinderella’s turn, the shoe fit. And while she lived happily ever after, her sisters were punished by having their eyes pecked out.
10
A greedy mother who desired the leafy greens (called rapunzel) that was kept in a garden by an evil sorceress. When the time came the sorceress asked for the payment of the daughter for all of the rapunzel taken from her garden. As the daughter grew up under Mother Gothel’s care Rapunzel became the most beautiful girl under the sun. One day, a prince was walking by and tricked Rapunzel in to meeting him They became good “friends” but once Mother Gothel found out, she kicked Rapunzel out into the forest and cut her hair. Once the prince came, he jumped out of the tower, survived but blinded himself Then while traveling he found Rapunzel, his eyes grew back from her tears and they lived happily ever after
11
Who would kiss a frog? Or let the frog eat off of your plate? What about lie on the pillow right next to you? Well that’s what a little girl had to do because she made a promise to the frog, which she had no intention of keeping.
12
Never make a deal with someone unless you know you are willing to pay the price. A short little man asks for a price each time he saves a girl from being killed (her father fooled the king into believing she could spin gold from flax). When she finally had nothing to give, he said he would take her first born. When her first child was born Rumpelstiltskin came back and said she could keep her baby if she guessed his name in 3 days. When she finally guessed correctly, he was so angry he stomped his foot and split in half
13
Movies and TV Shows The Brothers Grimm Once Upon a Time Snow White Sleeping Beauty Cinderella Little Red Riding Hood Rapunzel Princess and the Frog
14
Children Everywhere Haven’t we all watched the Disney Princess movies and hoped for our Prince Charming to come? Or a princess to come? Child Safety Agencies Everywhere Stranger Danger from Hansel and Gretel Treat people like you want to be treated (almost every tale from Cinderella to Snow White)
15
With the slips handed to you, take one and write a sentence on each to finish the fairytale. Use your fabulous AP Euro experiences or historical knowledge that you’ve learned this year. Good Luck, and may the odds ever be in your favor;-) (Now please do not get too frustrated over this, there’s no need to fight to the death for the best tribute… I mean best story lines.) Then with the prompts on the next slide base your story on them.
