"Snow White" is a 19th-century German fairy tale which is today known widely across
the Western world. The Brothers Grimm published it in 1812 in the first edition of
their collection Grimms' Fairy Tales. It was titled in German: Sneewittchen (in
modern orthography Schneewittchen) and numbered as Tale 53. The name "Sneewittchen"
was Low German and in the first version it was translated with "Schneeweichen".
The Grimms completed their final revision of the story in 1854.[1][2]
The fairy tale features such elements as the magic mirror, the poisoned apple, the
glass coffin, and the characters of the evil queen and the Seven Dwarfs. The seven
dwarfs were first given individual names in the 1912 Broadway play Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs and then given different names in Walt Disney's 1937 film Snow
White and the Seven Dwarfs. The Grimm story, which is commonly referred to as "Snow
White",[3] should not be confused with the story of "Snow White and Rose Red" (in
German "Schneeweichen und Rosenrot"), another fairy tale collected by the Brothers
Grimm.
In the AarneThompson folklore classification, tales of this kind are grouped
together as type 709, Snow White. Others of this kind include "Bella Venezia",
"Myrsina", "Nourie Hadig", "Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree",[4] "The Young Slave" and
"La petite Toute-Belle".

Plot[edit]

1. The Queen asks the magic mirror

2. Snow White in the forest

3. The dwarfs find Snow White asleep

4. The dwarfs warn Snow White

5. The Queen visits Snow White

6. The Queen has poisoned Snow White

7. The Prince awakes Snow White

8. The Queen arrives at the wedding

At the beginning of the story, a queen sits sewing at an open window during a
winter snowfall when she pricks her finger with her needle, causing three drops of
red blood to drip onto the freshly fallen white snow on the black windowsill. Then,
she says to herself, "How I wish that I had a daughter that had skin as white as
snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony." Some time later, the queen
gives birth to a baby daughter whom she names Snow White, but dies shortly
thereafter.[1][5]
A year later, Snow White's father, the king, takes a new wife, who is very
beautiful, but a wicked and vain woman. The new queen possesses a magic mirror,
which she asks every morning, "Magic mirror in my hand, who is the fairest in the
land?" The mirror always replies: "My queen, you are the fairest in the land." The
queen is always pleased with that, because the magic mirror never lies. But as Snow
White grows up, she becomes more beautiful each day and even more beautiful than
the queen, and when the queen asks her mirror, it tells her that Snow White is the
fairest.[1][5]
This gives the queen a great shock. She becomes envious, and from that moment on,
her heart turns against Snow White, whom the queen grows to hate increasingly with
time. Eventually, the angry queen orders a huntsman to take Snow White into the
deepest woods to be killed. As proof that Snow White is dead, the queen demands
that he returns with her lungs and liver. The huntsman takes Snow White into the
forest. After raising his knife, he finds himself unable to kill her and he spares
her life. He tells Snow White that her stepmother wants her dead and orders her to
flee as far away from the kingdom as possible. He instead brings the queen the
heart of a wild animal.[1][5]
After wandering through the forest, Snow White discovers a tiny cottage belonging
to a group of seven dwarfs. Since no one is at home, she eats some of the tiny
meals, drinks some of their wine, and then tests all the beds. Finally, the last
bed is comfortable enough for her and she falls asleep. When the dwarfs return
home, they immediately become aware that someone had snuck in secretly, because
everything in their home is in disorder. During their loud discussion about who had
snuck in, they discover the sleeping Snow White. She wakes up and explains to them
what happened, and the dwarfs take pity on her and let her stay with them in
exchange for housekeeping. They warn her to be careful when alone at home and to
let no one in when they are away delving in the mountains.[1][5]
Meanwhile, the queen asks her mirror once again: "Magic mirror in my hand, who is
the fairest in the land?" The mirror replies: "My queen, you are the fairest here
so true. But Snow White beyond the mountains at the Seven Dwarfs is a thousand
times more beautiful than you".[1] The queen is horrified to learn that the
huntsman has betrayed her and that Snow White is still alive. Planning to kill Snow
White, the queen disguises herself as an old peddler. The queen appears at the
dwarfs' cottage and offers Snow White colorful, silky laced bodices and convinces
Snow White to take the most beautiful laces as a present. Then the queen laces her
up so tightly that Snow White faints, causing the queen to leave her for dead. But
the dwarfs return just in time, and Snow White revives when the dwarfs loosen the
laces.[1][5]
The queen then consults her magic mirror again, and the mirror reveals Snow White's
survival. The queen dresses as a comb seller and convinces Snow White to take a
beautiful comb as a present. She brushes Snow White's hair with the poisoned comb
and the girl faints again. She is again revived by the dwarfs when they remove the
comb from her hair. When the mirror again indicates that Snow White still lives,
the queen makes a third and final attempt on Snow White by disguising herself as a
farmer's wife, and offering a poisoned apple to her. The girl is at first hesitant
to accept it, so the queen cuts the apple in half, eating the white (harmless) half
and giving the red poisoned half to Snow White. The girl eagerly takes a bite and
falls into a state of suspended animation. This time, the dwarfs are unable to
revive Snow White. Assuming that she is dead, they place her in a glass casket.[1]
[5]
After a short period of time, a prince traveling through the land sees Snow White.
He strides to her coffin. Enchanted by her beauty, he instantly falls in love with
her. The seven dwarfs succumb to his entreaties to let him have Snow White. The
moment he lifts the coffin to carry it away, the piece of poisoned apple falls from
between her lips and Snow White awakens saying "Where am I?" The Prince then
declares his love for her and soon a wedding is planned. Snow White and the prince
invite everyone to come to their wedding party, including Snow White's stepmother.
Meanwhile, the queen, still believing that Snow White is dead, again asks her magic
mirror who is the fairest in the land. The mirror says: "Thou, lady, art loveliest
here, I ween; but lovelier far is the new-made queen", which enrages the queen. Not
knowing that the Prince's bride is her stepdaughter, the queen arrives at the
wedding and sees that the bride is Snow White, whom she thought dead. She is frozen
with rage and fear, but iron slippers have been put in the fire, and they are put
before her. She is then forced to put on the red-hot slippers and dance to death.
Inspiration[edit]
Main article: The origin of the Snow White tale
Many scholars have theorized about the possible origins of the tale. In 1994, a
German historian named Eckhard Sander published Schneewittchen: Mrchen oder
Wahrheit? (Snow White: Fairy Tale or Truth?), claiming he had uncovered an account
that may have inspired the story that first appeared in Grimms Fairy Tales.
According to Sander, the character of Snow White was based on the life of
Margaretha von Waldeck, a German countess born to Philip IV in 1533. At the age of
16, Margarete was forced by her stepmother, Katharina of Hatzfeld, to move away to
Brussels. There, Margarete fell in love with a prince who would later become Philip
II of Spain. Margaretes father and stepmother disapproved of the relationship as
it was politically inconvenient. Margarete mysteriously died at the age of 21,
apparently having been poisoned. Historical accounts point to the King of Spain,
who opposing the romance, may have dispatched Spanish agents to murder Margarete.
[6]
Scholar Graham Anderson compares the story of Snow White to the Roman legend of
Chione, recorded in Ovid's Metamorphoses. The name Chione means "Snow" in Greek
and, in the story, she is described as the most beautiful woman in the land, so
beautiful that the gods Apollo and Mercury both fell in love with her. Mercury put
her to sleep with the touch of his caduceus and raped her in her sleep. Then
Apollo, disguised as an old crone, approached her and raped her again. These
affections led Chione to openly boast that she was more beautiful than the goddess
Diana herself, resulting in Diana shooting her through the tongue with an arrow.[7]
[8]
Karlheinz Bartels, a pharmacist and scholar from Lohr am Main, a town in
northwestern Bavaria, found evidence that Snow White was Maria Sophia Margarethe
Catharina, Baroness von und zu Erthal, who was born in Lohr on June 25, 1725.[9]
[10] Her father, Philipp Christoph von und zu Erthal, was the local representative
of the Prince Elector of Mainz.[11] After the death of Maria Sophias birth mother
in 1738, her father remarried in 1743. The stepmother, Claudia Elisabeth von
Reichenstein, was domineering and employed her new position to the advantage of her
children from her first marriage. A magic mirror referred to as The Talking
Mirror, known as always telling the truth, can still be viewed today in the
Spessart Museum in the Lohr Castle, where Maria Sophias stepmother lived. This
mirror was presumably a present from Maria Sophias father to his second wife. It
was a product of the Lohr Mirror Manufacture (Kurmainzische Spiegelmanufaktur).[12]

In their first edition, the Brothers Grimm published the version they had first
collected, in which the villain of the piece is Snow White's jealous mother. In a
version sent to another folklorist prior to the first edition, additionally, she
does not order a servant to take her to the woods, but takes her there herself to
gather flowers and abandons her; in the first edition, this task was transferred to
a servant.[13] It is believed that the change to a stepmother in later editions was
to tone down the story for children.[14]
One version of Snow White is the 1937 American animated film Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs by Walt Disney. Disney's variation of Snow White gave the dwarfs names
and included a singing Snow White. Instead of her lungs and liver, as written in
the original, the huntsman is asked by the queen to bring back Snow Whites heart.
Snow White is much more mature (about 14). And she is discovered by the dwarfs
after cleaning the house, not vandalizing it. Furthermore, in the Disney movie the
evil queen tries only once to kill Snow White (by a poisoned apple) and fails. She
then dies by falling down a cliff, after the dwarfs had chased her through the
forest. In the original, the queen is forced to dance to death.[15]
In Snow White (1987), produced by Cannon Movie Tales, the Evil Queen, after being
informed for the last time that Snow White is alive and the most fair, is consumed
with rage and hurls an object at the mirror causing it to crack. As she travels to
the wedding, the Evil Queen begins to age rapidly as the mirror continues to crack.
By the time she reaches the wedding and bursts in, she is an old hag and is
humiliated by the crowd. She leaves and, simultaneously with the mirror in her
castle, disintegrates into a pile of dust while Snow White and the Prince are
married.
In the 2012 adaptation Snow White and the Huntsman, directed by Rupert Sanders,
Snow White becomes a warrior in order to overthrow the Evil Queen named Ravenna,
and the huntsman named Eric is presented as her mentor and possible love interest.
In 2014, a version of Mattel schools of fairy tale characters, Ever After High,
Snow White has a daughter, Apple White (Royal), which disputes with Raven Queen
(daughter of the Evil Queen and Rebel) who prefers the Rebels follow the heart,
writing their own way.
Many later versions omit the Queen's attempted cannibalism, eating what she
believed to be the lungs and liver of Snow White. This may be a reference to old
Slavic mythology which includes tales of witches eating human hearts.
From other traditions[edit]
Many other variations of the story exist across and outside Europe. In some of
these variations the dwarfs are robbers, while the magic mirror is a dialog with
the sun or moon.[citation needed]
In a version from Albania, collected by Johann Georg von Hahn,[16] the main
character lives with 40 dragons, and her sleep is caused by a ring. The beginning
of the story has a twist, in that a teacher urges the heroine to kill her evil
stepmother so that she would take her place. The origin of this tale is debated; it
is likely no older than the Middle Ages. In fact, there are possibly two Albanian
versions of Snow White: one in which her stepmother tries to kill her, and another
in which her two jealous sisters try to kill her.
"The Jealous Sisters" is another Albanian fairy tale. In both fairy tales the death
is caused by a ring.[17]
Bidasari is a Malay tale written around 1750 A.D which tells the story of a witch
queen who asks her magic mirror about the prettiest lady in the kingdom.
In parallel to the stepmother's question of her magic mirror, the Indian epic poem
Padmavat (1540) includes the line: "Who is more beautiful, I or Padmavati?, Queen
Nagamati asks her new parrot, and it gives a displeasing reply...";
Nourie Hadag from Armenia was the daughter of a woman who asked the Moon, "Who is
the most beautiful in the world?", and the response is always "Nourie Hadag". The
mother plots to kill her daughter.[18][19]
The story in Russian writer Alexander Pushkin's poem The Tale of the Dead Princess
and the Seven Knights (1833) is similar to that of Snow White, with knights
replacing dwarfs.[20]
