Analyzing Idea Development in an Essay

Question 8 • FL-1001340-English 2 Sem 1 - Flex

Which details best support the idea that the Grimms’ tales are important folklore? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
The tales are brusque and comical.
B
The tales come from the German oral tradition.
C
The tales were never intended to be read by children.
D
Folklorists in other countries were inspired by the Grimms’ tales.
E
The UNESCO Memory of the World Registry lists an edition of the tales.

Explanation

Folklore is traditionally passed along within a culture, so the tales’ roots in the German oral tradition support their importance as folklore. The fact that folklorists in other countries were inspired by them shows their influence, and their inclusion in UNESCO’s Memory of the World Registry recognizes their cultural significance. Being brusque and comical or not originally intended for children does not, by itself, establish their importance as folklore.
