Fairy Tales Could Be Older Than We Ever Imagined A few hundreds years ago, fairy tale authors like the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen and Charles Perrault helped bring magical tales of princesses, evil ogres, dark forests, weird spells and thwarted love into the storybooks of children everywhere. But how old are the tales they transcribed? A new study suggests that A___________.
B___________, a folklorist and an anthropologist say that stories like “Rumpelstiltskin” and “Jack and the Beanstalk” are much older than originally thought. Instead of dating from the 1500s, the researchers say, some of these classic stories are 4,000 and 5,000 years old. This contradicts previous speculation that story collectors like the Brothers Grimm were relaying tales that were only a few hundred years old.
It turns out that it’s pretty hard to figure out how old fairy tales are using simple historical data. C___________, they can be almost impossible to unwind using a historian's or anthropologist’s traditional toolbox. So the team borrowed from biology instead, D___________. Usually, phylogenetic analysis is used to show how organisms evolved. Researchers used strategies created by evolutionary biologists to trace the roots of 275 fairy tales through complex trees of language, population and culture.
The team found the presence of the tales in 50 Indo-European language-speaking populations. They were able to find the ancestries of 76 tales, E___________. As they tracked, they found evidence that some tales were actually based on other stories. More than a quarter of the stories turned out to have ancient roots — for example, “Jack and the Beanstalk” was traced back more than 5,000 years ago.
The findings might confirm the long-disregarded theory of fairy tale writer Wilhelm Grimm, F___________.
- tracking them backward using language trees
- in a new study published in the journal Royal Society Open Science
- their origins go all the way back to prehistory
- who thought that all Indo-European cultures shared common tales
- since the tales were passed down orally
- using a technique called phylogenetic analysis
- who didn’t know any better
