The initiator of the literary fairy tale genre, Charles Perrault, published in 1695 under the name of his son a collection of fairy tales Histoires ou contes du temps passes, avec des moralites, which grew better known under its subtitle, Contes de ma mere l'Oye or Tales of My Mother Goose. Perrault's publication marks the first authenticated starting-point for Mother Goose stories.
Über Charles Perrault
The father of the fairy tale as we know it today, 17th-century French author Charles Perrault dedicated the latter part of his life to the betterment and education of his (and all) children through tales of morality. The stories he left behind have since become the cornerstone of fiction and iconic of the fairy tale genre as a whole. From 'Little Red Riding Hood' to 'Puss in Boots', his tales are as essential to the modern consciousness as the very themes they explore.
