Aesop was born in 620 BCE and is believed to have died in 564 BCE (aged 56) by being hurled off a cliff. He left behind a strong legacy; Aesop is believed to be responsible for some 600 short stories that teach some kind of lesson. His writings are still widely told and discussed all these years later.]]> 2023-08-28 02:33:00 UTC https://padlet.com/2024ayoung/ck4tbyt8mr1fj13c/wish/2674535289 2024ayoung https://padlet.com/2024ayoung/ck4tbyt8mr1fj13c/wish/2674546560 One of the commonly most known fables is The Fox and the Grapes. In this story, a fox is unable to reach sweet, purple grapes. Since he's unable to reach them, he is quick to decide those "sour" grapes weren't worth his time from the beginning. The moral of this story is it's easy to despise what you cannot have.]]> 2023-08-28 02:41:23 UTC https://padlet.com/2024ayoung/ck4tbyt8mr1fj13c/wish/2674546560 2024ayoung https://padlet.com/2024ayoung/ck4tbyt8mr1fj13c/wish/2674549519

The Grimm brothers are responsible for some well-known tales such as Cinderella. Some of their stories have since been adapted and turned into more family-friendly stories.

Jacob Grimm was born in Hanau, Germany, on January 4, 1785. 

With his brother Wilhelm, he began collecting traditional German folk tales, publishing their first volume, Children and Household Tales, in 1812. 

While many of these stories are still well known today-"Cinderella" and "Little Red Riding Hood" among them-their long-critiqued violence and frankness have been toned down over the years in more familiar versions. 

After a long career as an academic and librarian, Jacob died in 1863.

The Grimm Brothers' version of Cinderella is much deeper and contains some subjects not included in the tale produced by Disney. "The three main differences are, the father died in Disney's version but did not die in Gimms' version, there was no fairy godmother in Grimm's version but there was in Disney's, and in the original version the stepsisters cut their heels and toes off so it would fit in the slipper but in the Disney version they did not."

A tale is an (oftentimes) old story usually told orally which sometimes alters the original story. 
- The main idea can either be explicit, which means it's directly stated in the story, or it can be implied, which means it's not directly stated in the story.]]> 2023-08-28 02:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/2024ayoung/ck4tbyt8mr1fj13c/wish/2674562293 2024ayoung https://padlet.com/2024ayoung/ck4tbyt8mr1fj13c/wish/2675369884 A parable is a story intended to teach a lesson. The first parable that comes to my mind is The Boy Who Cried Wolf. In this parable by Aesop, a shepherd boy repeatedly, and falsely cries out "Wolf! Wolf!," in hopes to amuse himself and disturb the villagers. As any good person would, the villagers always jump up and run to help him fight off the "wolf" from his sheep. Some time later, an actual wolf comes up on the animals. The boy once again hollers out "Wolf! Wolf!" This time, nobody comes to his help. They're exhausted by his previous false claims. As a result he is unable to keep his sheep contained and the entire flock goes missing. The story to be learned here is "Nobody believes a liar...even when he is telling the truth!"
