Hierdie fris, lewendige vertaling deur Marita van der Vyver is om verskillende redes uniek. Dit is die eerste keer dat die volledige Grimm in Afrikaans in een band verskyn. Ook die herkoms van elk van die 210 sprokies wat aan die hand van verskeie bronne nagegaan is, word vir die eerste keer in Afrikaans opgeteken. Daarby is dit die eerste keer dat die klassieke negentiende-eeuse tekeninge van die drie groot Grimm-illustreerders – Hermann Vogel, P. Grot Johann en R. Leinweber – in ’n Afrikaanse uitgawe gebruik word.

Authors

German philologist and folklorist Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm in 1822 formulated Grimm's Law, the basis for much of modern comparative linguistics. With his brother Wilhelm Karl Grimm (1786-1859), he collected Germanic folk tales and published them as Grimm's Fairy Tales (1812-1815). Indo-European stop consonants, represented in Germanic, underwent the regular changes that Grimm's Law describes; this law essentially states that Indo-European p shifted to Germanic f, t shifted to th, and k shifted to h. Indo-European b shifted to Germanic p, d shifted to t, and g shifted to k. Indo-European bh shifted to Germanic b, dh shifted to d, and gh shifted to g. This jurist and mythologist also authored the monumental German Dictionary and his Deutsche Mythologie . Adapted from Wikipedia.
