This research paper: A 3 page essay that analyzes the symbolic meaning of the Grimms' fairy tale Hansel and Gretel. On April 18, 1805, Jacob Grimm wrote to his brother Wilhelm that, in his opinion, the only time when a conceptualization of the past, that is, the "world of knights," was possible was in the forest (Zipes 68). In the imagination of the Brothers Grimm, the setting of the German forest is metaphoric and symbolic. Many of today's psychologists and therapists agree, as they perceive fairy tales as archetypal in nature, and able to appeal in images to fundamental aspects of the human psyche. As this suggests, Hansel and Gretel by the Brothers Grimm can be read as an allegory that symbolizes the empowerment of two children against child abuse. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
