«El señor Korbes y otros cuentos de Grimm» is the collection of tales by the Brothers Grimm published by Media Vaca in hardcover (168 pages, in Spanish).
Twenty-four little-known tales collected by the Brothers Grimm from oral tradition, featuring peasants and animals, with morals that are anything but sugar-coated. Pedro Gálvez's translation preserves the direct tone of the originals, and Oliveiro Dumas's illustrations, in two colors and with collage, bring an expressionist perspective.
Volume 9 of Media Vaca's «Libros para niños» collection; first edition of 2001, with selection by Herrín Hidalgo from Kinder- und Hausmärchen and translation from German by Pedro Gálvez.
Aimed at readers who are no longer children and seek tales with folk humor, cheek and uncomplacent endings, far from sugar-coated versions.
Jacob Ludwig Karl Grimm, also known as Ludwig Karl, was a German author, linguist, philologist, jurist, and folklorist. He formulated Grimm's law of linguistics, and was the co-author of the Deutsches Wörterbuch, the author of Deutsche Mythologie, and the editor of Grimms' Fairy Tales. He was the older brother of Wilhelm Grimm; together, they were the literary duo known as the Brothers Grimm.
