About the Author
Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm were German linguists, folklorists, and scholars, best known for compiling and publishing Grimm's Fairy Tales. Born in the late 18th century, the brothers dedicated their lives to collecting and preserving Germanic folktales and myths. Jacob was a linguist and philologist, and Wilhelm was more focused on literary composition. Together, they published Grimm's Fairy Tales in 1812, which became a foundational work in both folklore and children's literature. In addition to their fairy tale collection, the Grimms also worked on the German Dictionary, a monumental work in the field of linguistics. Their legacy continues to influence folklore, literature, and cultural studies.
