Rapunzel

"Rapunzel" is a German fairy tale first presented by the Brothers Grimm in 1812. The story follows a young girl who is locked inside an isolated tower by an enchantress. As time passes for Rapunzel inside the tower, her golden hair grows so much that when dropped out the towers window, it touches the forest floor. Eventually, a prince finds her and saves her from the enchantress and her lonely existence. The story has been adapted into many successful film versions.

Did Charles Perrault write Rapunzel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, although transcribing many now-classic folk-tales (and transforming them to fit the aristocracy), Rapunzel was not one of Perrault's tales. The believed original transcription dates back to Lo Cunti de li Cunto (The Story of Stories), in 1634 by Italian author Giambattista Balie. Creating the foundation for later, better-known versions, such as the Brother's Grimm, this version called Parsley, was believed to have been collected from the oral tales of Crete and Venice.

What is Rapunzel's favorite food in Disney's Tangled?

Since Bambi was Walt Disney's favorite film, I would say it was a deer.

With all due respect, it's pretty difficult to get him to answer this personally, as he passed away in December of 1966. The answer doesn't seem to be explicitly stated in his Wikipedia biographical profile, but I believe that it would have to be a mouse, originally named Mortimer and ultimately named Mickey, whose popularity launched the commercial successes of Disney's enterprises and whose very creation also gained Disney his first "Honorary Academy Award" in 1932.

Why is Rapunzels hair in tangled so long?

Asked by Wiki User

I'm not certain that it can. When she shows Flynn the lock of hair Gothel cut off when she was a baby, it was a very short piece of hair. I doubt her hair will grow back. It should be short forever.

It's cute either way though! Flynn is an aspiring hair dresser! x)

Asked by Wiki User

Rumpelstiltskin is a dwarf fictional character in a fairy tale of the same name that originated in Germany (where he is known as Rumpelstilzchen).

The earliest known mention of Rumplestiltskin occurs in Johann Fischart's Geschichtklitterung, or Gargantua of 1577 (a loose adaptation of Rabelais' Gargantua and Pantagruel) which refers to an "amusement" for children named "Rumpele stilt or the Poppart".

What is Rapunzel's stepmom's name?

Mother Gothel

Sorry but Mother Gothel Isn't a 'step' mom. Being a 'step' requires that the step-parent has a relationship with one of the child's biological parents and also the other biological parent is either seperated of divocred. The best term used here is 'false mother' or 'foster' mother.
