Description
Translated by Lore Segal with four tales translated by Randall Jarrell. Illustrated by Maurice Sendak
“Many Fur” is translated from the text within the first edition of Kinder- und Hansmarchen (1812, 1815), which is more coherent than the versions within the later editions. The opposite tales are translated from lalter texts, as reworked by the Brothers Grimm.
Randall Jarrell’s translations of “Fisherman and His Wife,”Hansel and Gretel,” The Golden Bird and Other Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm (Macmillian, 1962), are reprinted here.
