KHM 62 - La reina de las abejas - Narradora: Bego Alabazan



El cuento original: en alemán, en inglés, en castellano

BEGOÑA ALABAZAN
NARRADORA ORAL:
(BEGOÑA GÓMEZ ABRISKETA)

Nací en 1966 y, como buena niña (que no “niña buena”), me gustaba jugar con las historias con las que me encontraba haciendo marionetas, dibujos, murales, contándolas o teatralizándolas.
Mucho más adelante, en 1996, tuve la oportunidad de formar parte en la creación del grupo de Narración Oral “A la Luz de las Velas”. No sospechaba entonces hasta qué punto iban a calar los cuentos en mi.
Y gracias a este encuentro (o reencuentro), me “di a la bebida” de cuentos, cantos y leyendas para satisfacer esa sed de historias que tenía desde niña. Fue después que conocí el gran disfrute de hacerlas mías y comunicarlas.

KHM 92 - Die Königin aus der Rosenstadt - Storyteller: Birgit Lehner



Read the original story: in German, in English, in Spanish

Birgit Lehner tells her version of the Grimms' tale "The King of the Golden Mountain" (KHM 92), partially interweaving it with the folktale "The Queen of the Town of Roses" that has been collected in the 1930ies in germanspeaking villages of Northern Hungary. In this variant the enchanted queen has not been changed into a snake. She is a beautiful woman and obviously very strong herself: Before she asks the hero to release her she tests his strength by hitting him three times - which is a quite funny scene. The end of the variant, though, is more conciliable than in the Grimms' tale: In order to stay with her first husband, the queen asks her guests at her second marriage whether an original key or a copy would fit better, and everybody votes for the original key.

KHM 94 - Die kluge Kohlenbrennerstochter - Storyteller: Birgit Lehner (Excerpt)



Read the original story: in German, in English

"Die kluge Kohlenbrennerstochter" (The Charburner's Clever Daughter) is a variant of the Grimms' Tale "The Peasant's Clever Daughter" (KHM 94). It has been collected in the 1930ies in germanspeaking villages in Northern Hungary: As in the original Grimms' tale, the king expulses his wife, the charburner's daughter, because she has interfered with his business, and allows her to take with her only what is dearest in her eyes. She chooses her husband. In this variant the queen carries the sleeping king on her own back home to her father's house.

Birgit Lehner tells her version in Austrian dialect. The performance took place in august 2010 in Upper Austria during a festival celebrating that - thanks to the initiative of Austrian storyteller Helmut Wittmann -- storytelling had been put on the Austrian UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage.

KHM 4 - The boy who wanted to learn what fear was - Storyteller: Paramythokores



Read the original story: in German, in English, in Spanish

Paramythokores tell the Greek version of "The youth who wanted to learn what fear is" (AT 326, KHM 004) and with this tale they participate in "Project Grimm". In this project storytellers from around Europe share stories from the famous collection of fairytales celebrating the 200th anniversary of the first edition of the collection by brothers Grimm.
The Greek version of the tale is significantly different from the european versions. It has elements from the european tales as well as oriental tales creating a unique mixture. The pattern of the fearless youth comes from the european tradition and from the Orient come the tales of a youth that faces three women and prevails. In Greece these two completely different tales are combined in one.
The youth sets off to find fear and meets a witch, a mermaid and a dragon but he proves himself fearless. It is later revealed the the three fears are three fairies, the youth marries one of them and returning to his house he finds out what fear is by a mouse.

The performance took place on February 2012 in Cyprus, at the Cultural Workshop Ayion Omoloyiton. This story was part of a performance for schools.
In the video there are excerpts of a 20-minute tale.

Οι Παραμυθοκόρες αφηγούνται την ελληνική παραλλαγή του "Αφοβου" (AT 326, KHM 004), του παλικαριού που έψαξε να βρει τί είναι ο φόβος. Με αυτό το παραμύθι συμμετέχουν στο "Project Grimm". Σε αυτό το project συμμετέχουν αφηγητές από όλη την Ευρώπη με την ευκαιρία των εορτασμών των 200 χρόνων από την πρώτη έκδοση της συλλογής παραμυθιών των αδερφών Γκριμ.
Το ελληνικό παραμύθι είναι αρκετά διαφορετικό από τις ευρωπαϊκές παραλλαγές του. Έχει στοιχεία τόσο από τα ευρωπαϊκά αντίστοιχα παραμύθια όσο και από παραμύθια που έρχονται από την Ανατολή, δημιουργώντας μια μοναδική μείξη που απασχόλησε τους μελετητές. Το μοτίβο του άφοβου παλικαριού προέρχεται από την ευρωπαϊκή παράδοση ενώ από την Ανατολή φτάνουν παραμύθια ενός ηρωα που ανταγωνίζεται τρεις γυναίκες και θριαμβεύει. Στην Ελλάδα τα δύο αυτά εντελώς διαφορετικά παραμύθια ενώθηκαν σε ένα.
Ο νέος ξεκινά να βρει το φόβο και συναντά μια μάγισσα, μια γοργόνα και έναν δράκο αλλά αποδεικνύεται άφοβος. Αποκαλύπτεται ότι οι τρεις φόβοι είναι νεράιδες, παντρεύεται μια από αυτές και επιστρέφοντας σπίτι του μαθαίνει τί είναι ο φόβος από ένα ποντίκι.
Η αφήγηση έγινε το Φεβρουάριο 2012 στην Κύπρο, στο "Πολιτιστικό Εργαστήρι Αγίων Ομολογητών" στη Λευκωσία. Ήταν μέρος μιας παράστασης αφήγησης για δημoτικά σχολεία.

KHM 135 - Die schöne Stieftochter - Storyteller: Birgit Lehner



(Photo: Frank Helmrich)

Read the original story: in German, in English

"The Beautiful Stepdaughter" ("Die schöne Stieftochter") is an Austrian folktale that has been recorded in 1917 in Styria. It is a close variant of "The White Bride and the Black One", Grimm number 135.
It is part of the collection "Märchen aus Österreich", edited by Leander Petzold (Munich, 1991). In this recording (not a public performance) I tell my version in Austrian dialect.

Contact information:
Birgit Lehner, storyteller living in Vienna/Austria
Website: www.geschichten-erzaehlerin.at
Mailto: maerchenerzaehlerin@gmail.com

Synopsis: A beggar (in the original version it is God himself disguised as a beggar, I leave this fact out in my version) knocks at the house of an evil woman who lives there with her evil daughter and her warmhearted stepdaughter. The woman chases the beggar away, but her stepdaughter clandestinly helps him. As a reward the beggar offers her two wishes, and the good girl chooses to become bright as day, whereas her stepsister should become black as night. (In "The White Bride and the Black One" the girl has three wishes, and she choses beauty, an ever-full purse and to go to Heaven after her death. And it is God himself who makes the stepmother and stepdaughter black and ugly.)
The beautiful stepdaughter then sends a portrait of herself to her brother who works as the king's coachman. (In the Grimm version it is her brother who paints her, and she asks him to show the painting to nobody else).
When the king sees her portrait he falls in love with her and promises to marry her. He orders the coachman to bring his sister to the castle. But when the coachmen drives home to fetch her, their stepmother casts an evil spell on them so that the coachman becomes blind and his sister deaf. The blind coachman drives his deaf sister and their evil stepmother and stepsister to the castle (What an absurd image, isn't it? In "The White Bride and the Black One" the coachman and his sister are only half blind and half deaf.)
During the journey the coachman asks his sister whether she is wearing her wedding cap and wedding dress (in the original version just a beautiful dress and cap). As the deaf girl cannot not understand his words she asks the evil women to explain her brother's words to her, but those pretend that she should handle over her wedding dress and cap to her stepsister. Finally the evil women throw the right bride into a river when the carriage crosses a bridge. When they arrive at the king's castle the king thinks that the coachman has betrayed him and lets him throw into a snakepit. But as he wants to keep his promise the king marries the false and ugly bride. (In the Grimm version it is because the stepmother bewitches also the king's mind or eyes.) Some days after the marriage, though, a snow-white duck comes into the royal kitchen and says to the cook "How's my poor brother and my evil stepmother? He's captured with snakes and otters whilst she warms herself at the oven." When the duck comes again the other day the cook informs the king. The king orders the cook to throw a white shirt over the duck the next time it would appear. The cook does as the king has ordered him to do, and the duck changes into the right bride. (In the Grimm version the king cuts off the duck's head.)
The king frees his innocent coachman and throws the false bride and her mother into the snakepit (in the original version he burns them; in the Grimm version the kings asks the stepmother what ought to be done to someone who had committed a crime like hers, and when she says that such a person should be stripped naked and put in a barrel with nails which should be dragged off by a horse, this is exactly how the king will punish her and her daughter). From that moment on the coachman is no longer blind and the right bride is no longer deaf and the king finally marries the right bright bride.

Reag the original story: in German, in English, in Spanish

Gabi Altenbach, Cordula Gerndt and Katharina Ritter are professional German storytellers. From October 2008 to December 2011 they ran a project, called “Ganz Grimm” (The Complete Grimm) in the course of which they monthly told all the 200 fairytales of the Brothers Grimm one after the other at a little stage in Munich, Germany. Since then they form a group, calling themselves “The Sisters Grimm”. In January 2012 they performed a storytelling-marathon by telling the tales of the Brothers Grimm in three days, every day from 12 a.m. to 12 p.m. Some of the stories they told together (part by part), but most stories were told by one of the three Sisters Grimm alone. The video- and audio-clips are the result of these marathons.
