The first written record of a story that may be recognized as Rapunzel is Giambattista Basile's Petrosinella, translating to parsley, which was published in Naples in the local dialect in 1634 in a collection entitled Lo cunto de li cunti (The Tale of Tales). [3]
"Petrosinella" has many differences from both the 1812 and 1857 versions of "Rapunzel" recorded by the Grimm brothers. [4] Notably, the Grimms' version does not mention the maiden's learning "magic arts", nor does it include an escape scene where she uses these powers to save both her and the prince from a pursuing villain.

Rapunzel is a children's book written and illustrated by Paul O. Zelinsky and a retelling of the fairy tale of the same name by the Brothers Grimm. Released by Dutton Press , it was the recipient of the Caldecott Medal for illustration in 1998.
Compare this with a published story that's thematically similar to "Rapunzel," but published in Italy in 1634, and the Grimms' squeamishness is thrown into high relief. In Giambattista Basile's "Petrosinella," the long-locked princess winks at her suitor, and it's acknowledged that the two are "making love" long before they're married.
