KHM 170 - Joy and Sorrow
Read the original story: in German, in English
KHM 170
"I am Alexandria Patience, a storyteller and artist, and I live on the North Coast of Scotland, in a wee village called Portskerra. Sorrow and Joy is one of the two stories that I have been given to tell – and I have to admit I had a little trouble getting my head and heart into finding a way to ‘tell’ the story as a woman in todays society. The translation of Sorrow and Joy, that I read was softer on the husband than the version the above link will direct you, so I felt the challenge to find a way to tell the story lightly, but that didn’t make light of the act of violence... So I think I have found a way that doesn’t compromise the story (another important factor for me) and doesn’t compromise me. Let me know what you think."

KHM 67
"I am Alexandria Patience, a storyteller and artist, and I live on the North Coast of Scotland, in a wee village called Portskerra. I selected the story of The Twelve Hunters because there are so many versions and variations on this story and I seem to like them all. I tell many stories which weave in my love of the sea and my fisher background and since the summer of 2011 I have worked to incorporate live original music into some of the stories I tell. This story The Twelve Hunters is told with the accompaniment of music written and played by Donald McNeill. We both live on the Far North Coast of Scotland. This recording has been made in my fishermans' cottage."

What is Project Grimm?
Project Grimm was conceived during the 2011 conference of the Federation for European Storytelling in Toledo, Spain. Storytellers representing many European countries and many storytelling traditions agreed that the Grimm fairy tales are part of our common cultural heritage, and they should be celebrated as so - especially in 2012, when Kinder- und Hausmärchen is going to reach the 200th anniversary of its first publication (December 20, 1812).
To celebrate well-known and less well-known Grimm tales and all their distant cousins in other European storytelling traditions, participants of the Project Grimm created a game. There rules were as follows:
- Every participant (individual teller or group) will create a preformance, or a series of performances, from 4 Grimm tales
- 2 of the four tales will be chosen by the participant from the tales published in the KHM's first edition
- the other 2 tales will be assigned to the participants by draw (these are also called their "luck stories"
- participants will prepare their performances, record them on camera, and submit the videos to the project's coordinator by December 31, 2011.
This site is the result of Project Grimm; it is a place to share the videos born from the game. Our goal is to celebrate the Grimm tales and their significant influence on European culture and storytelling.
You can browse the videos by language, name and country of the teller, KHM number, and tale title. Some tales are published in whole, others are only excerpts from the performances.
We wish you all an exciting Grimm Year! Let the stories begin!

The Rules of Project Grimm
As created in July, 2011.
The Project Grimm
Project Grimm is an international initiative of European storytellers within and in collaboration with FEST to celebrate the 2012 bicentennial of the first publication of the Children’s and Household Tales by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm (1812).
The aims and goals of the project are:
- To celebrate the rich heritage and tradition of the Grimm tales,
- To promote live oral storytelling as an independent art form in Europe and the world,
- To create a multicultural project for storytellers all over the world, connected by the common heritage of well-known tales,
- To promote bi- and multilingual storytelling projects and the collaboration of storytellers speaking different languages,
- To celebrate the vast cultural roots and connections of the Grimm tales and their many variants, both traditional and modern,
- To experiment with new telling styles and techniques both separately and together,
- To create a virtual space for promotion and education, both on the subject of the Grimm tales and on the art of storytelling.
The process:
- Every storyteller (or group) wishing to participate in the project will work with 4 of the Grimm’s tales.
(The number of participating tellers/groups from one country is not limited, but cooperations between the tellers of one country is strongly encouraged!)
- 2 of those tales can be selected by the storyteller or the group, with no restriction other than they have to be selected from the list of the Grimm’s tales.
- The other 2 tales will be selected by luck, under the supervision of the Project Grimm’s coordinator (Csenge Zalka) (The main goal is for all 200+ tales to be selected at least once, so tales that have been already drawn will not be put back into the list again until a second round is needed.)
(Children's Legends are not part of the drawing list, but they can be chosen freely by the storytellers if they wish)
- From the 4 tales, separately or together, the storyteller(s) have to create a live oral storytelling performance. Again, no other restrictions.
- Tales can be merged together or handled separately
- Any variant or translation of the tales can be used – both different Grimm editions and folk variants of the same tale from any culture
- The tales can be performed by one person or a group of storytellers
- The tales can be performed in any language (although translations and alternative languages are most welcome)
- At least one voice and/or video recording has to be created of the performance(s) by the end of 2011 (December 31st) and submitted
- Preference is for the recordings to be taken at a live performance, with audience involved (but if not possible, studio recordings are also welcome)
- the quality of the recordings is important – they have to be suitable for submission on an official homepage
- 3-5 minute pieces of the recordings will be posted on the internet together with additional information on the tales, the tellers and their countries and cultures.
- At the next FEST meeting (2012, Belgium) a workshop will be held for the participants of the project to share experiences, ideas and tales
The project coordinator:
- will create a list of Grimm’s tales with their respective numbers (both KHM and random numbers for the drawing)
- will create and update the list of tellers participating in the project and what tales they are working with
- will create and maintain a database of tales, links and background material submitted by the participants, and make it available for them to help their work
- will help cooperation between participants by connecting them to each other and keeping track of the work
- will help making the project visible (through FEST website or a separate website in collaboration with FEST)
Participants can help the project by:
- Submitting information about the tales they are working with
- Helping each other with advice, information, sources, translations etc.
- Making information available about the progress of their work, so it can be followed by participants and people who are interested
- creating nice recordings
- helping with translations to many languages (the more the merrier)
- adding ideas, suggestions, questions and answers.
