Ready to learn the stunning story of Sleeping Beauty ?

The first version of 1636: "Sun, Moon and Talia"

Not long ago we talked about the real Little Red Riding Hood , the true story of Snow White and the origins of Cinderella's story. Today we want to get into the story that most often we find on the bedside tables of the children's public: Sleeping Beauty.

The true story of «Sleeping Beauty»

We will start with a warning: the true story of Sleeping Beauty is very different from what we all have in mind.Let's go to the beginning of this story, to that "once upon a time"...

The first version dates from 1636 The story was part of a collection called «Pentamerone» and its author was an Italian gentleman: Giambattista Bassile. And what was the title of the story? «Sun, Moon and Talia».
It tells the story not of Aurora, but of Talia. There is still a curse, a spell that wise men and astrologers warn of the monarchs of the kingdom: when the heiress is a teenager, she will prick herself with a poison sliver hidden among the linen.And what does the king do? Prohibit the entry of linen into the palace.As expected, it is of no use.The girl ends up pricking herself with the needle of a spinning wheel for linen spinning.
The king, desolate, far from burying her, He leaves her in his room covered by a velvet mantle.Then they leave the palace.Until here, as you can see, everything is more or less similar.But now the big difference comes...
About 100 years pass, and one day, a young nobleman appears in the surroundings accompanied by his hawk and his dogs.He is hunting, and coincidentally encounters that abandoned palace.Carried out by curiosity he decides to enter , taking a pleasant surprise.There is a young girl who seems asleep.Seeing that she cannot wake up, the nobleman decides to take advantage and simply… the outrage .Viola to the young Talia.
Nine months later two children are born: Sun and Moon .The young woman is still unconscious, so babies are taken care of by the So, one day, while the child is looking for his mother's breast to feed, he casually grabs his mother's finger.He sucks and removes the poison.The spell is broken.Here, as you can see, no kiss is needed.of love.
Time later the young noble returns to the palace .The reason? She wants to "visit" her faded princess once more.Her surprise is monumental, not only because she sees the young woman awake, but because she is accompanied by two children.What happens then? Nothing special.Talia is happy about what happened and they spend a few weeks together.Then the nobleman leaves her to return to his family, because, of course, he already has his own wife.

The true story of «Sleeping Beauty»

The true story of Sleeping Beauty is much more twisted than that we expected

The real problem comes when the wife of our noble discovers the "secret family" of his Husband.Raised by rage, he orders Talia to be burned at a stake and that the children-Sun and Moon-be killed and cooked so that their unfaithful husband eats them without knowing it.But quiet...this story has an end happy in spite of everything.At the moment when the young girl is going to be burned at the stake, she decides to take off her pieces of clothing one by one and, suddenly, each one emits a frightening sound when she comes into contact with the fire.This sound captures the attention of the nobleman who, terrified, manages to stop the sacrifice.
And what about Sun and Moon? The cook refuses to fulfill such sacrilege What he served at the table, cheating on his lady, was actually goat meat, a feat that the nobleman appreciates by naming him royal treasurer.
The story ends at a wedding and in a happy and united family originated of chance.That if, in the end, the young man's extramarital adventure and his secret "outrage" has no punishment, but a strange reward.

The sweetened version of Perrault and the Grimm brothers

When Perrault wanted to introduce Talia's story into his works and of his children, he was aware that he had to make some small changes, scarplo in hand.The first thing he did was to eliminate the rape.Something like that was obviously inconceivable to the children.

The true story of «Sleeping Beauty»

The princess would be awakened by a kiss, the kiss of a kind, helpful and sweet prince with whom he would marry immediately.In addition, they would have two daughters, who, along with herself, would be terribly hated by the prince's mother-here he would repeat himself once more I try to cook the couple's children-the story was called, as you know, "Sleeping Beauty of the Forest ".Later, our dear Brothers Grimm They brought us the most syrupy version, the one we all know.That most aseptic interpretation that we can tell the little ones with total peace of mind.

What version do you stay with? With the true story of Sleeping Beauty? Or with Disney's?
