Grimms' Fairy Tales Complete Collection - (Volume 1 and 2)

Author: Brothers Grimm
Publisher:
Publish Date: 2007-01-01
Features: As the name suggests, the focus of this series lies in "excellence," unlike the Yang Wuneng Translation Collection which emphasizes comprehensiveness, systematicity, and academic rigor. Moreover, the pursuit of excellence should not be limited to selection—meaning only selecting the most renowned works from masterpieces or classics, and only including translations favored and recognized by a broad readership. Design, layout, and illustrations must also strive for aesthetic beauty. Another difference from the Yang Wuneng Translation Collection is that this series will be released in installments, with plans to complete it within two to three years. This is not due to limitations in the publisher's editorial capabilities or topic planning, but rather to reduce the financial burden on readers and allow them to make purchases at their own pace. The series includes introductions, prefaces, appendices, and images to enhance readers' interest and help them achieve the goal of "intellectual travel." The translators and editors of this series aim to make the books as exquisite as possible and are committed to continuous improvement, hence they warmly welcome feedback and suggestions from readers and fellow experts.
