1859), were German academics, linguists, cultural
researchers, lexicographers and authors who together
specialized in collecting and publishing folklore during the
19th century. They were among the best-known storytellers
of folk tales, and popularized stories such as "Cinderella"
("Aschenputtel"), "The Frog Prince" ("Der Froschkönig"),
"The Goose-Girl" ("Die Gänsemagd"), "Hansel and Gretel"
("Hänsel und Gretel"), "Rapunzel", "Rumpelstiltskin"
("Rumpelstilzchen"),"Sleeping Beauty" ("Dornröschen"),
and "Snow White" ("Schneewittchen"). Their first collection
of folk tales, Children's and Household Tales (Kinder- und
Hausmärchen), was published in 1812.
