After years of wishing for a child, a couple is expecting a baby. The husband and wife live next to a large, extensive, high-walledflower and herb gardenbelonging to asorceress.[a]The wife craves for the rapunzel (which is eithercornsaladorrampion[6]) that she sees growing in the garden. She refuses to eat anything else and begins to waste away. Her husband fears for her life and one night, he scales down the garden wall tostealsome rapunzel for her. When the man returns home, his wife makes asaladout of the rapunzel and eats it. But the next day, the wife craves for more rapunzel, so her husband returns to the garden that night to steal some more. As he scales down the garden wall, the sorceress catches him and accuses him of theft. The man begs for mercy and explains his wife's condition. The sorceress agrees to be lenient, allowing the man to take all the rapunzel he wants on the condition that the baby be given to her when it is born.[b]Desperate, he agrees. Different versions disagree whether the sorceress had deliberately caused her pregnant neighbour to crave the rapunzel in the first place, by design to create the pretence of taking custody of the baby instead of persecuting the man and his wife, or if it was just acoincidencethat the sorceress exploited when the opportunity presented itself.

When the wife gives birth to a baby girl, the sorceress takes her to raise as her own and names her "Rapunzel" after the plant her mother had craved for. Rapunzel grows up to be a beautiful child with longgolden hair.[c]When she turns twelve, the sorceress locks her up in atowerin the middle of thewoods,with neither stairs nor a door, and only one room and one window at the top.[d]In order to visit Rapunzel, the sorceress stands at the bottom of the tower and calls out:

Rapunzel!
Rapunzel!
Let down your hair
That I may climb thy golden stair![e]

Whenever Rapunzel hears that rhyme,[f]she fastens her longbraided hairto ahookin the window before letting it fall twentyyardsto the ground, and the sorceress climbs up it.

A few years later, aprincerides through the forest and hears Rapunzel singing from the tower. Entranced by her ethereal voice, he searches for her and discovers the tower, but is unable to enter it. The prince returns to the tower often, listening to Rapunzel's beautiful singing, and one day sees the sorceress visit her as usual and learns how to gain access. When the sorceress leaves, the prince bids Rapunzel to let her hair down. Thinking it is the sorceress calling her again, Rapunzel lets down her hair and the prince climbs up. The two then fall in love and secretlymarry.As the sorceress visits Rapunzel by day, the couple plans a means of escape: the prince will bring his wife a strand ofsilkevery night until she has enough to make aladderfor her to climb down the tower and ride away with him on horseback.

Before the couple's escape plan can come to fruition, however, the sorceress visits one day and Rapunzel innocently asks her why allher clothes are tight around the waist(this part comes from the 1812 original edition ofKinder- und HausmärchenorChildren's and Household Tales,most commonly known in English asGrimms' Fairy Tales;[13]in later editions, Rapunzel instead asks "Dame Gothel",[g]in a moment of forgetfulness, why it is easier for her to draw up the prince than her[15]). In anger, the sorceress cuts off Rapunzel's hair and banishes her into the wilderness to fend for herself.

When the prince calls that night, the sorceress hooks Rapunzel's severed hair and lets it down to haul him up. To the prince's horror, he finds himself meeting the sorceress instead of Rapunzel. After the sorceress tells the prince in a rage that he will never see Rapunzel again, he throws himself from the tower, landing in a patch ofthorns.Although the prince survives, the thornsblindhim. A month later in the wilderness, Rapunzel gives birth to hertwin childrenwith the prince – a boy and a girl.

For some years, the blind prince wanders through the wastelands of the country and eventually comes to the wilderness where Rapunzel has been living with their children. One day, as Rapunzel sings, the prince hears her voice again, and they are reunited. When they fall into each other's arms, Rapunzel shedstears,two of which fall into the prince's eyes, immediately restoring his sight. The prince leads Rapunzel and their children to his kingdom where they live happily ever after.[h]

Another version of the story ends with the revelation that the sorceress had untied Rapunzel's hair after the prince leapt from the tower, and it slipped from her hands and landed far below, leaving her trapped in the tower.[17]

Origin and development

edit

Mythological and religious inspiration

edit

Some researchers have proposed that the earliest possible inspiration for the "Maiden in the Tower" archetype is to the pre-Christian European (orproto-Indo-European)sunordawn goddessmyths, in which the light deity is trapped and is rescued.[18][19]Similar myths include that of theBalticsolar goddess,Saulė,who is held captive in a tower by a king.[20]Inspiration may also be taken from theclassical mythof the hero,Perseus;Perseus' mother, the PrincessDanaë,was confined to abronze towerby her own father,Acrisius,the King ofArgos,in an attempt to prevent her from becoming pregnant, as it was foretold by theOracle of Delphithat she would bear a son who would kill his grandfather.

Inspiration may come fromEthniu,daughter ofBalor,in Irish myth.

Inspiration may come from the story ofSaint BarbaraofNicomedia,who is said to have been a beautiful woman who was confined to a tower by her father to protect her from bad influences.[21]While in the tower, she is said to have converted to Christianity and be ultimately martyred for her faith after a series of miracles delaying her execution.[21][22]Her story was included inThe Book of the City of Ladies,completed by 1405 byChristine de Pizanin vernacular French, which may have been highly influential on later writers, as it was popular throughout Europe.[22]

Literary development

edit

The earliest surviving reference to a female character with long hair that she offers to a male lover to climb like a ladder appears in the Persian epic poemShahnameh,written byFerdowsibetweenc.977 and 1010 CE.[22]The heroine of the story,Rudāba,offers her hair so that her love interestZālmay enter the harem where she lives. Zāl instead uses a rope he had his servant brought with him so that she will not hurt herself.[22]

The first written record of a story that may be recognized asRapunzelisGiambattista Basile'sPetrosinella,translating to parsley, which was published inNaplesin the local dialect in 1634 in a collection entitledLo cunto de li cunti(The Tale of Tales).[3]This version of the story differs from later versions as it is the wife not the husband who steals the plant, the maiden is taken by the villain as a child rather than a baby, and the maiden and the prince are not separated for years to be reunited in the end.[3]Most importantly, this version of the story contains a "flight" scene in which Petrosinella uses magic acorns that turn into animals to distract the ogress while she pursues the couple fleeing the tower.[23]This "flight" scene, with three magic objects used as distraction, is found in oral variants in theMediterraneanregion, notablySicily(Angiola),Malta(Little ParsleyandLittle Fennel), andGreece(Anthousa the Fair with Golden Hair).[23]

In 1697,Charlotte-Rose de Caumont de La Forcepublished a variation of the story,Persinette,while confined to an abbey due to perceived misconduct during service in the court ofLouis XIV.[22][24]Before her imprisonment, de la Force was a prominent figure in the Parisian salons and considered one of the earlyconteusesas a contemporary toCharles Perrault.[22]This version of the story includes almost all elements that were found in later versions by the Grimm Brothers.[23]It is the first version to include the maiden's out of wedlock pregnancy, the villain's trickery leading to the prince's blinding, the birth of twins, and the tears of the maiden restoring the prince's sight. The tale ends with the antagonist taking pity on the couple and transporting them to the prince's kingdom.[22]While de la Force's claim thatPersinettewas an original story cannot be substantiated, her version was the most complex at the time and did introduce original elements.[24]

German adaptation

edit

The first known German translation ofCharlotte-Rose de Caumont de La Force's talePersinettecame about in 1766 by Friedrich Immanuel Bierling under the name "Das Cabinet der Feen. Oder gesammelte Feen-Märchen in neun Theilen, Aus dem Französischen übersetzt",published in Nürenberg. More famously,Persinettewas translated into German by Friedrich Schulz and appeared in 1790 inKleine Romane(Little Novels), as it was Schulz who changed the plant and the maiden's name to Rapunzel.[25]Jacob and Wilhelm Grimmincluded the story in their first (1812) and seventh (1857) edition publications ofChildren's and Household Talesand removed elements that they believed were added to the "original" German fairy tale.[23]Although the Grimms' recounting of the fairy tale is the most prevalent version of the "Maiden in the Tower" in the western literary canon, the story does not appear to have connections to a Germanic oral folktale tradition.[23]Notably, the 1812 publication retains the out of wedlock pregnancy that reveals the prince's visits to the witch, whereas in the 1857 version edited byWilhelm Grimm,it is Rapunzel's slip of the tongue to address criticism that the tale was not appropriate for children.[24]It can be argued that the 1857 version of the story was the first written for a primarily child-aged audience.[24]

Distribution

edit

According to Greek folklorist Georgios A. Megas, fellow folklorist Michael Meracles concluded that the tale type originated in Southeastern Europe, by analysing 22 Greek variants, 2 Serbo-Croatian and 1 from Corsica.[26]

Scholar Jack Zipes stated that the tale type is "extremely popular throughout Europe".[27]However, scholar Ton Deker remarked that the tale type is "mainly known" in Central and South Europe, and in the Middle East.[28]In the same vein,Stith Thompsonargued for a Mediterranean origin for the story, due to "its great popularity" in Italy and nearby countries.[29]

Scholar Ulrich Marzolph remarked that the tale type AT 310 was one of "the most frequently encountered tales in Arab oral tradition", albeit missing fromThe Arabian Nightscompilation.[30]

Themes and characterization

edit
Rapunzel inDresden,Saxony,Germany

Many scholars have interpreted "Maiden in the Tower" stories, which Rapunzel is a part of, as a metaphor for the protection of young women from pre-marital relationships by overzealous guardians.[23]Scholars have drawn comparisons of the confinement of Rapunzel in her tower to that of a convent, where women's lives were highly controlled and they lived in exclusion from outsiders.[3]

Scholars have also noted the strong theme of love conquering all in the story, as the lovers are united after years of searching in all versions afterPersinetteand are ultimately happily reunited as a family.[31]

The seemingly unfair bargain that the husband makes with the sorceress in the opening ofRapunzelis a common convention in fairy tales, which is replicated inJack and the Beanstalk,when Jack trades a cow for beans, and inBeauty and the Beast,when Beauty comes to the Beast in return for a rose.[32]Furthermore, folkloric beliefs often regarded it as dangerous to deny a pregnant woman any food she craved, making the bargain with the sorceress more understandable, since the husband would have perceived his actions as saving his wife at the cost of his child.[31]Family members would often go to great lengths to secure such cravings, and such desires for lettuce and other vegetables may indicate a need forvitamins.[33][34]

The "Maiden in the Tower" archetype has drawn comparisons to a possible lostmatriarchal mythconnected to thesacred marriagebetween the prince and the maiden and the rivalry between the maiden, representing life and spring, and thecrone,representing death and winter.[22]

The novel is a revisionist backstory for Rapunzel that also connects to elements ofSnow White,Little Red Riding Hood,and other tales.[39]

Notes

edit
  1. ^In the version of the story given by J. Achim Christoph Friedrich Schulz in hisKleine Romane(1790), which was the Grimms' direct source, the owner of the garden is afairy(Fee), and also appears as such in the Grimms' first edition ofKinder- und Hausmärchen(1812); by the final edition of 1857 the Grimms had deliberately Germanized the story by changing her to the more Teutonic "sorceress" (Zauberin), just as they had changed the original "prince" (Prinz) to the Germanic "son of a king" (Königssohn). At no point, however, do they refer to her as a "witch"(German:Hexe), despite the common modern impression.
  2. ^In some variants of the story, the request takes a more riddling form, e.g. the foster mother demands "that which is under your belt." In other variants, the mother, worn out by the squalling of the child, wishes for someone to take it away, whereupon the figure of the foster-mother appears to claim it.[7]
  3. ^In Schulz, this is caused by the fairy herself, who sprinkles the child with a "precious liquid/perfume/ointment" (German:kostbaren Wasser). Her hair according to Schulz is thirty ells long (112+1⁄2feet or 34.3 metres), but not at all uncomfortable for her to wear;[8]in the Grimms, it hangs twenty ells (75 feet or 23 meters) from the window-hook to the ground.[9]
  4. ^In Schulz's 1790 version of the story, the purpose of the fairy in doing so is to protect Rapunzel from an "unlucky star" which threatens her;[10]the Grimms (deliberately seeking to return to a more archaic form of the story and perhaps influenced by Basile's Italian variant) make the fairy/sorceress a much more threatening figure.
  5. ^Schulz, "Rapunzel, laß deine Haare 'runter, daß ich 'rauf kann."(" Rapunzel, let down thy hairs, so I can [climb] up. ");[11]Grimms, "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, laß dein Haar herunter!"(" Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let downwards thy hair! ").[9]
  6. ^Jacob Grimm ostensibly believed that the strong alliteration of the rhyme indicated that it was a survival of the ancient form of Germanic poetry known asStabreim,but in actuality, it was his liberal adaption of Schulz's direct German translation ofCharlotte-Rose de Caumont de La Force's older French versionPersinette, Persinette, descendez vos cheveux que je monte.[12]
  7. ^German:Frau Gothel.She refers to the previously unnamed sorceress by this title only at this point in the Grimms' story. The use ofFrauin early modern German was more restricted, and referred only to a woman of noble birth, rather than to any woman as in modern German.Gothel(orGöthel,Göthle,Göthe,etc.) was originally not a personal name, but an occupational one meaning "midwife,wet nurse,foster mother,godparent".[14]
  8. ^In Schulz, the fairy, relenting from her anger, transports the whole family to his father's palace in her flying carriage.[16]
