"Old Sultan" is a German fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm. It combined three different types: the old dog rescues the child; wild animals hide from an unfamiliar animal; and the war between the village animals and the forest animals. A farmer's dog named Sultan had grown old. One day the farmer told his wife he would kill Sultan. The dog heard. A wolf told him that they would take their child haying the next day, and the wolf would carry him off. Sultan could chase him, and he would free the child. They would be grateful and not kill Sultan. The Brothers Grimm, Jacob (1785–1863) and Wilhelm (1786–1859) were German scholars, philologists, cultural researchers, lexicographers, folklorists, and authors who together collected and published folklore. The brothers are among the most famous storytellers, popularizing such stories as Cinderella, The Frog Prince, Hansel and Gretel, The Bremen Town Musicians, Little Red Riding Hood, and Rapunzel. "Rumplestiltskin", "Sleeping Beauty" and "Snow White". Their first collection of fairy tales, Children's and Household Tales, began publication in 1812.
