Read the excerpt from "How the Grimm Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale." In contrast to the final 1857 edition, most of the tales in

the first edition are shorter and sparser. They have a rawness that was later to be refined. For example, "Rapunzel” is embellished a great deal in the final edition: First Edition Once upon a time there lived a husband and wife who had been wishing for a child for many years, but it had all been in vain. Finally, the woman became pregnant. Now, in the back of their house the couple had a small window that overlooked a fairy’s garden filled with all kinds of flowers and herbs. But nobody ever dared to enter it. Seventh Edition Once upon a time there was a husband and wife who for quite some time had been wishing in vain for a child. Finally, the dear Lord gave the wife a sign of hope that their wish would be fulfilled. Now, in the back of their house the couple had a small window that overlooked a splendid garden filled with the most beautiful flowers and herbs. The garden, however, was surrounded by a high wall, and nobody dared enter it because it belonged to a sorceress, who was very powerful and feared by all. Which idea does the author develop with the text example cited in the excerpt? The Grimms found stories that express real-life situations. The Grimms embellished stories with more details in their final editions. The Grimms wanted to stick to oral reports of folk tales. The Grimms changed stories to be less dark in the final edition.

The answer is:

The Grimms embellished stories with more details in their final editions.

According to the excerpt from "How the Grimm Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale," the author directs attention to the fact that the Grimm brothers enhanced, developed and expanded their stories in later later editions rather than the first. For example, he mentions how "Rapunzel" improved and became more refined from the first to the seventh edition.

Answer:

B for edge

Explanation:

In contrast to the final 1857 edition, most of the tales in the first edition are shorter and sparser. They have a rawness that was later to be refined. For example, “Rapunzel” is embellished a great deal in the final edition:

First Edition

Once upon a time there lived a husband and wife who had been wishing for a child for many years, but it had all been in vain. Finally, the woman became pregnant.

Now, in the back of their house the couple had a small window that overlooked a fairy’s garden filled with all kinds of flowers and herbs. But nobody ever dared to enter it.

Seventh Edition

Once upon a time there was a husband and wife who for quite some time had been wishing in vain for a child. Finally, the dear Lord gave the wife a sign of hope that their wish would be fulfilled. Now, in the back of their house the couple had a small window that overlooked a splendid garden filled with the most beautiful flowers and herbs. The garden, however, was surrounded by a high wall, and nobody dared enter it because it belonged to a sorceress, who was very powerful and feared by all.

–“How the Grimm Brothers Saved

the Fairy Tale,”

Jack Zipes

Why does the author include excerpts from two versions of the story of "Rapunzel”?

to show that there are different versions of the same story told in different cultures

to show how the Grimms added details to make the story more vivid for readers

to show that the last edition was more informative and engaging than the first

to tell the story twice to ensure that readers understand the plot and characters in the story

Why should a thesis statement be significant, debatable, and limited?
Scrat [10]
Hiya!
A thesis statement should be significant, because it gets the reader interested! It should be debatable so you can show other points of views and show what view you like the most. Lastly, it should be limited so you don't tell everything all at once.
