The German Spirit: A fairy tale of Green Story
no one is familiar with fairy tales, such as antxian fairy tales, green fairy tales, 1,000 nights, etc., which are classics that accompany many of our childhood.
so how does fairy tales appear in people's lives? today's major talk is the green story from germany, whose emergence enriches german folk stories and is of great importance in the history of literature.
at the same time, the literature of europe as a whole is influenced by the green fairy tale, which can be said to reveal to some extent the social landscape and psychological changes in germany during the romantic era.
the green brothers, as the guide of folk fairy tales, have rapidly developed fairy tales in germany, which are also, in a sense, literary in nature, so that they contain a rich cultural content and artistic identity, which is the same as the works of ordinary literature, and in form, with clear lines of thought, etc.
but the difference between fairy tales is naturally unique.
at the turn of the century after the french revolution, napoleon occupied germany’s rhine region, which led to considerable change in germany, from culture to politics, and created a sense of crisis.
it is surprising that the era of german romanticism has coincided with the emergence of romantic people and works in such a chaotic social context.
germany’s poets and writers are concerned to see that the country is in a state of deep concern, that germany’s power is diminishing and that the german nation has yet to show signs of unity, and that it has helped to unify the country by borrowing its capabilities.
if the german people were to be united, they would have to start with words and words and move forward only if there were no obstacles to communication.
so it was they who acted and took the initiative to study folklore, a sign that green fairy tales were about to appear in germany.
village stories have become their material, and in the course of their attention to the history, legends and even myths of the german nation, many romantic writers have made a great contribution, such as goethe, marx and engus, who are familiar with the belief that only linguistic and cultural unity can make the country more prosperous and the people more united.
the green brothers can be considered the nostrils of folk fairy tales, both of whom were influenced by the social environment and were in the camp of the search for folk stories when german romance prevailed.
in kassel, they were inspired by their knowledge of alnim and brentano, which began to reflect on and transform world and life perspectives.
they collect german legends and myths as far as possible and record them.
after six years of tireless efforts, the first chapter of their fairy tale was finally completed.
alnim and brentano, who helped them, were in fact well-known german romantic writers who collected german national songs from the 16th century, met the green brothers and left them with the task of collecting folklore.
we'll do it when we're doneThe Green brothers were hard to publish and print, and they wrote to Arniem in the hope of receiving his help.
Alnim was a writer, but on the one hand, he was struggling, and several had finally made the fairy tale.
The book, which was published on Christmas, was popular with many children and was called Children and Family Story.
As can be seen from this, the Green Brothers grew up in the most popular years of German romanticism, which attracted the attention and help of romantic writers and, without such a historical background, it might be difficult to have a Green fairy tale.
The Green brothers were well aware of Arniem ' s contributions, and then printed a fairy tale to Arniem ' s newly born son.
To speak of the role of fairy tales in society is not, as is generally believed, merely to please children, and many adults can find comfort in the world of fairy tales.
In the book, they emphasize the national spirit of Germany, and they want to use the power of literature to infect the people who were in Germany ' s plight at the time, and they want you to come together and fight against the enemies of foreign aggression.
A strong sense of patriotism, which infected many Germans at the time, did indeed contribute significantly to the stability of German society.
In addition to the Green fairy tale, Germany is unique to this child, and the Green Brothers alone have printed five successive editions in the decades of their lives, while at the same time, as the times have evolved and progressed, the ties between nations have become ever closer.
So the Green Story in Germany sells overseas, with more than 100 translated versions in different languages, and becomes a well-known fairy tale.
Literary attention to fairy tales has been limited, which has led to their spreading in literature and has contributed greatly to the rescue of German folk stories.
Although fairy tales are easy for children to understand and read, they also have their own unique creative thinking.
First, the most obvious difference between folk fairy tales and literary works is that they have a fictional and non-existent world.
Imagination is the source of fairy tales, and the authors of fairy tales must have a rich imagination and an empty pen.
Although the aim is to encourage adults to live together and be united in the real world, fairy tales are, after all, for children, so they differ from the general literature.
The Swiss scholar, "Marx Lutti", believes that the real and the non-real worlds in fairy tales are interwoven.
The fairy tale has a more fixed idea of the environment, that is, the way things are written.
For example, when some bad people come in, there's thunderstorms, and the master's mood is clear, and so on, they appear naturally in books, and they express the author's emotions.
The unexpected surprises in fairy tales do not make any sense of peacekeeping, because anything is possible in such a world of fiction and real balance.
Second, it's part of the plot, in the LordWhen a man is in danger, there will always be a first-time rescue, for example, in a little red hat, where the wolf swallows her in the belly, and a little red hat with a lead radiant ring recognizes and saves her by his own talents, which is a bridge that will not exist in real life, but it is a joy in fairy tales.
Fixed language, fixed role thinking is an important reason why fairy tales are appropriate for children to read.
At the same time, fairy tales are sketchy in the psychological sense of the person, or need not be taken too seriously, because good people are defined from the start, witches are bad, princesses are good, wolves are bad, white rabbits are good, there is no psychological in-depth study, and there is no special background, and concretization makes fairy tales unattractive and boring.
Secondly, fairy tales have more traditional narrative models, such as "a long time ago..." and "they live happily together." The case is simpler, and it is usually first or later, for example, when a princess is born beautifully and lives happily, and the witch takes away her happiness, and then the prince comes and lives happily together.
Proceduralized narratives can remain deeply in people ' s minds.
Of course, the positive energy that fairy tales carry is also the reason for their attention and love.
Those who are highly just and the tasks that they need to carry out are for the betterment of their homes.
In fairy tales, small animals are equal to human beings, who join hands against those who invade their homes.
Because of the variety of fairy tales, there are daily stories of justice and scary stories, but either of them is a warning not to do harm, and between danger and horror, a clear spring is being washed up.
The fairy tale is exactly what the most devastated German people of the time needed to feed their souls, and it is easy to find a sense of existence in fairy tales, where people resonate with the characters of fairy tales, where the slowest turtle can outrun rabbits through his own tireless efforts, and where the bottom people live in a more difficult but more and more aggressive way, with an evolving, kind heart.
These daunting tasks, ordinary lives and happy endings can be shocked in the heart and soul.
Why couldn't Germany then be happy with its own intelligence and courage? A fairy tale infects people with the most just position, expresses the infinite desire for the good, and the simple argument that good, good, evil and evil can come with flowers.
For the children of Germany, reading fairy tales from an early age serves as a source of inspiration and indoctrination, teaching them to be as brave as princes and knights, as good and good as princesses, and to hold on to the pure soil of their hearts, even without gorgeous dresses and noble identities.
Overall, the fairy taleThe German people have been made more aware of the importance of commitment and effort and have been able to analyse the intellectual needs of people at the literary level in order to achieve indoctrination and encouragement。
