S8 Ep3: Midnight Mother Goose, Part 3

Lean in dear listener as together, we disentangle some of the fairy tale contributors who were not of the farming or peasant vein after all. Some lived as far away as across the street, another, a widow, sold garden vegetables at the market between storytelling to make ends meet for her multi-generational home, and one of the Grimm’s sources came from a huguenot, French background--so our friend Charles Perrault and his Mother Goose tales has made another appearance, summoned like Rumplestiltskin.

Over 50% of the stories in the Grimm's collection were shared by women who were educated and middle class, some were aristocrats.

The illustrators of fairy tales and nursery rhymes were more than an incognito first initial last name and together we can lean into a "restoration" of these artists and storytellers, while incomplete, we will follow the breadcrumb path of understanding as we wrap up our 3 part series on Midnight Mother Goose.
