《格林童话》简介：
《格林童话》是由德国语言学家雅各布·格林和威廉·格林兄弟收集、整理、加工完成的德国民间文学。《格林童话》里面约有200多个故事，大部分源自民间的口头传说，其中的《灰姑娘》《白雪公主》《小红帽》《青蛙王子》等童话故事较为闻名。
它是世界童话的经典之作，自问世以来，在世界各地影响十分广泛。格林兄弟以其丰富的想象、优美的语言给孩子们讲述了一个个神奇而又浪漫的童话故事。在中国、日本也有根据《格林童话》创作的故事集。
内容简介：
1812年格林童话第一集出版，包含了86篇童话故事，第二集增加了70个故事，内容不断扩充，格林兄弟生前出版（第七版）的故事集有200则，加上圣徒传说多达210则，再加上补遗就有215则。其中以《灰姑娘》《玫瑰小姐》《受骗的青蛙》《雪白和玫瑰红》《猫和老鼠交朋友》《聪明的农家女》《三兄弟》《月亮》《熊皮人》《石竹》《白雪公主》《小红帽》《睡美人》《糖果屋》《青蛙王子》《渔夫和他的妻子》《野狼和七只小羊》《大拇指》《勇敢的小裁缝》《不莱梅的城市乐手》《穿靴子的猫》较为闻名。
《格林童话》内容广泛，体裁多样，除了童话外，还有民间故事、笑话、寓言等。其中故事大致分三类：一是神魔故事，如《灰姑娘》《白雪公主》《玫瑰公主》《青蛙王子》《小矮人与老鞋匠》《玻璃瓶中的妖怪》等，这些故事情节曲折、惊险奇异、变幻莫测。二是以动物为主人公的拟人童话，如《猫和老鼠》《狼与七只小山羊》《金鸟》等，这些故事中的动物既富有人情，又具有动物特点，生动可爱。三是以日常生活为题材的故事，如《快乐的汉斯》《三兄弟》等，这些故事中的人物勤劳质朴、幽默可爱。
时代背景：
格林兄弟生活和创作的命运同德国文学的浪漫主义时期不可分割地联系在一起。由法国大革命（1789—1794年）催生的浪漫主义文学运动在18—19世纪之交席卷全欧，最先在德国这片混乱、落后的土地上开花结果。
当时的德国，可谓欧洲最灾难深重的民族国家。自“三十年战争”（1618—1648年）后，沦为主要战场的德国，其政治经济都分崩离析，虽然名义上还顶着“神圣罗马帝国”的名号，实质却分裂成由360多个大大小小的公国和自由城市组成的“布头封建帝国”’一个结构松散的混合体，社会发展严重迟缓。1806年，横扫欧洲的拿破仑战争彻底瓦解了神圣罗马帝国，在法国的征服和统治下，德国民众的民族意识被唤醒，要求德意志民族统一强大的渴望空前高涨。在这种状况下，大批知识分子投入到民族解放运动之中。但此时支离破碎的德国社会，诸多林立的公国之间存在的包括语言、文化等在内的差异成为民族统一的障碍，为了消除这一文化上的阻碍，德国知识界开始宣扬文化民族主义，希望借助古老的日耳曼民族文化来促成民族统一，这一时期的德国浪漫派在秉承浪漫主义文化精神的同时，亦将眼光转向民间文化传统领域，整理研究德国民间文学并使之发扬光大。

从前有个贫苦的小女仆跟着她的主人家一起穿过一片大森林，当他们走到森林的中间时，突然树丛中窜出了一群强盗，见人就杀。小女孩吓得魂不附体，赶快从马车上跳了下来，藏在树后，才幸免于难，其余的人统统给强盗杀光了。强盗们带着他们的战利品扬长而去，这时小女孩才从树后走出来。目睹了眼前这场灾难，小女孩不禁悲痛地哭了起来，只听她口中说："我这样孤苦零丁的，现在我该怎么办呢?我怎样才能走出这林子?林间又无别人住在这里，我肯定会饿死的!"于是她便四处乱走，想找条出路，但一切均是枉然。到了晚上，她坐在一棵树下，祈求上帝的庇护，心想不管发生什么事情，她都将呆在原地不动。过了一会儿，一只白鸽飞了过来，口衔着小金钥匙。它把钥匙放在小女孩的手上，说："你看见那棵大树上的小锁吗?用这片小钥匙去打开它，你就会得到足够的食物，也不会再挨饿了。"于是小女孩走到树前，打开了树上的锁，发现树里有个小盘子，里面盛着牛奶和白白的面包，她便放开肚皮吃了个饱。吃完后，她又说："现在是家里的母鸡归巢的时候了，我好累，要是能有张床睡觉该有多好!"刚说完，白鸽又飞了过来，口里叼着另一片小金钥匙，说："打开那边那棵树，你就会得到一张床。"于是小女孩又去打开了那棵树，发现一张白色的床，精美无比。她立刻感谢了上帝当晚的保护，便躺下睡着了。第二天早上，那白鸽又飞来了，口里又叼着片小金钥匙，说："打开那棵树，你能找到衣裳。"小女孩便打开了树，发现好多的衣服，都镶嵌着金银珠宝，比公主穿的还要漂亮。从此，她便住在森林里，那只白鸽每天飞来飞去，给她带来各式各样所需的东西。
这种生活多美好啊!
一天，白鸽飞来说道："你能替我办点事吗?""十分愿意，"小女孩答道。小白鸽说："我将带你到一间小屋前，你走进去，里边会有一个老妇人坐在火炉边对你说你好!但是千万别回答她，不管她做什么，你从她右边走过去;再往前，会有一扇打开的门，走进去，那儿有各式各样的戒指，还有珠光宝石的戒指，华贵无比。同样别碰它们，只找一个样式普通的，拿到后赶快回到我这里来。"小女孩便走到了小屋前，只见那儿果真坐着个老妇人，她盯着小女孩说："你好，我的孩子。"小女孩没有搭理她，径直打开了门。"走开!"老妇人一边嚷，一边来扯她的衣服想抓住她，"那是我的房子，没有我的允许，谁也不准进去!"小女孩也不说话，挣脱她径直冲进屋内。屋里的桌子上确有许多戒指，在她眼前闪闪发光。小女孩翻遍了所有的戒指，想找出那只模样普通的，但没找着。她找啊找啊，这时她突然留意到那老妇人手提一只鸟笼，正准备偷偷摸摸地溜走。小女孩马上赶过去，劈手夺过鸟笼，举在眼前仔细一看，原来里边有只小鸟的口中正叼着一个模样普通的戒指。于是她便伸手进去拿出了戒指，高高兴兴地跑了回去。她以为小白鸽一定会来取戒指，但是它却没有来。小女孩只好靠在一棵树上，静静地等候小白鸽。她就这样一直靠树站着，这时她只觉得树儿又软又松，树枝也垂了下来。突然，树枝变成了两只手臂一下抱住了她。小女孩扭头一看，原来她靠在上面的树儿竟变成了一位英俊潇洒的年轻人。他就是这样地抱着小女孩，深情地吻着她，说："是你破了那个老巫婆的妖术，把我救了出来。她曾把我变成一棵树，每天，我还得做两小时的白鸽。只要她掌握着这个戒指，我便没法恢复人形。"接着，那些被巫婆变成树的仆人和马匹，都脱了巫术，一个个站在他的身后。这位年轻人原来是位王子殿下，王子将他们重新带回宫。后来王子和小女孩成了亲，生活过得幸福又快乐。
森林中的老妇人英文版： The old woman in the wood
A poor servant-girl was once travelling with the family with which she was in service, through a great forest, and when they were in the midst of it, robbers came out of the thicket, and murdered all they found. All perished together except the girl, who had jumped out of the carriage in a fright, and hidden herself behind a tree. When the robbers had gone away with their booty, she came out and beheld the great disaster. Then she began to weep bitterly, and said, "What can a poor girl like me do now? I do not know how to get out of the forest, no human being lives in it, so I must certainly starve."
She walked about and looked for a road, but could find none. When it was evening she seated herself under a tree, gave herself into Gods keeping, and resolved to sit waiting there and not go away, let what might happen. When, however, she had sat there for a while, a white dove came flying to her with a little golden key in its mouth. It put the little key in her hand, and said, "Dost thou see that great tree, therein is a little lock, it opens with the tiny key, and there thou wilt find food enough, and suffer no more hunger."
Then she went to the tree and opened it, and found milk in a little dish, and white bread to break into it, so that she could eat her fill. When she was satisfied, she said, "It is now the time when the hens at home go to roost, I am so tired I could go to bed too." Then the dove flew to her again, and brought another golden key in its bill, and said, "Open that tree there, and thou willt find a bed."
So she opened it, and found a beautiful white bed, and she prayed God to protect her during the night, and lay down and slept. In the morning the dove came for the third time, and again brought a little key, and said, "Open that tree there, and thou wilt find clothes." And when she opened it, she found garments beset with gold and with jewels, more splendid than those of any kings daughter.
So she lived there for some time, and the dove came every day and provided her with all she needed, and it was a quiet good life.
Once, however, the dove came and said, "Wilt thou do something for my sake?" - "With all my heart," said the girl. Then said the little dove, "I will guide thee to a small house; enter it, and inside it, an old woman will be sitting by the fire and will say, Good-day.
But on thy life give her no answer, let her do what she will, but pass by her on the right side; further on, there is a door, which open, and thou wilt enter into a room where a quantity of rings of all kinds are lying, amongst which are some magnificent ones with shining stones; leave them, however, where they are, and seek out a plain one, which must likewise be amongst them, and bring it here to me as quickly as thou canst." The girl went to the little house, and came to the door.
There sat an old woman who stared when she saw her, and said, "Good-day my child." The girl gave her no answer, and opened the door. "Whither away," cried the old woman, and seized her by the gown, and wanted to hold her fast, saying, "That is my house; no one can go in there if I choose not to allow it." But the girl was silent, got away from her, and went straight into the room. Now there lay on the table an enormous quantity of rings, which gleamed and glittered before her eyes.
She turned them over and looked for the plain one, but could not find it. While she was seeking, she saw the old woman and how she was stealing away, and wanting to get off with a bird-cage which she had in her hand. So she went after her and took the cage out of her hand, and when she raised it up and looked into it, a bird was inside which had the plain ring in its bill.
Then she took the ring, and ran quite joyously home with it, and thought the little white dove would come and get the ring, but it did not. Then she leant against a tree and determined to wait for the dove, and, as she thus stood, it seemed just as if the tree was soft and pliant, and was letting its branches down. And suddenly the branches twined around her, and were two arms, and when she looked round, the tree was a handsome man, who embraced and kissed her heartily, and said, "Thou hast delivered me from the power of the old woman, who is a wicked witch. She had changed me into a tree, and every day for two hours I was a white dove, and so long as she possessed the ring I could not regain my human form."
Then his servants and his horses, who had likewise been changed into trees, were freed from the enchantment also, and stood beside him. And he led them forth to his kingdom, for he was a Kings son, and they married, and lived happily.
