Grimm Brothers (Grimm experts come on in)
So I watched the Grimm brothers and started to think about the morals of their stories and what they really mean. Then I start to think back to how kids never really want to learn at young ages and just read and listen to fairy tales for their own enjoyment. So I did i bit of research on the Grimm Brothers and found this in their Nursery and Household Tales...
"...we see the basis for the moral precept or for the relevant object lesson that can be derived so readily from these tales; it was never their pupose to instruct, nor were they made up for that reason, but a moral grows out of them, just as good fruit develops from healthy blossoms without help from man."
So if the morals weren't made for children to learn, what were the made for? Just curious...
...but the way, the movie was a disgrace to the Grimm Brothers.
Places, real and imagined...
Lexington--my adopted home for (probably) the next six years or more, is roughly one hour south of Cincinnatti, one hour east of Louisville, three hours west of Charleston, WV, and four hours north of Nashville.
I absolutely love it here, and that's saying a LOT. I have lived in many places in my time, and none of them ever felt right the way Lexington does.
I also love it here on litnet. It's a good place to lick your wounds after dropping $25 on PartyPoker.com. Indeed, my communities, real or imagined, seem to proliferate as the days pass...
Good to know you, V. If you'd like to know more about me, just ask. Also, I recently posted to the Writing area-- take a look if you wish. And if you've posted anything to which you'd especially like to draw my attention, I'm all ears (eyes?).
