CONFERENCE 6TH ? 8TH SEPTEMBER 2012
2012 is the bicentenary of the publication of the first volume of the
Kinder- und Hausmärchen [Children?s and Household Tales] by
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. As this groundbreaking collection moves
into its third century, this conference explores the trajectory of the Grimm
phenomenon in Britain and the English-speaking world.
Examining the varied and colourful reception history of this
collection of tales,
we will discuss the most recent fairy- tale scholarship,
as well as looking forward to possible future developments.

Donald Haase, Neil Philip, Marina Warner, and Jack Zipes
