Read the excerpt from How the Grim Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale- Excerpt: In contrast to the final 1857 edition, most of the tales in the first edition are shorter and sparser. They have a rawness that was later to be refined. For example, “Rapunzel” is embellished a great deal in the final edition:

First edition-
Once upon a time there lived a husband and wife who had been wishing a child for many years, but it had all been in vain. Finally, the women became pregnant.

Now, in the back of their house the couple had a small window that overlooked a fairy’s garden filled with all kinds of flowers and herbs. But nobody ever dared to enter it.

Seventh Edition-

Now, in the back of their house the couple had a small window that overlooked a splendid garden filled with beautiful flowers and herbs. The garden, however, was surrounded by a high wall, and nobody dared enter it because it belonged to a sorceress l, who was very powerful and feared by all.
