Translated and adapted to the Brazilian reader public from the end of the nineteenth century to the present day, the tales Sleeping Beauty in the Forest, Little Red Riding Hood, Blue Beard, The Boots Cat, The Fairies, Cinderella, Riquet of the Topete and The Little Thumb have recently won a new Brazilian edition that presents a complete translation of the work that became the canon of children's literature: Histories or Tales from the Time Past with Morals (Histoires or Contes du temps passé avec des Moralités) by Charles Perrault. In this interview with the translator, he seeks to know his work, his understanding of the work and the process of translation, and his proposals and strategies, especially in relation to these short stories, elaborated by the French writer of the XVII century with a characteristic that distinguishes them from others fairy tales: morality in verse at the end of the story told in prose.
