Question: The novel "Cress" is loosely based on a Grimm Brothers' fairytale first published in what year?
Sentence (from "Rapunzel"): The Schulz version is based on "Persinette" by Charlotte-Rose de Caumont de La Force originally published in 1698 which in turn was influenced by an even earlier Italian tale, "Petrosinella" by Giambattista Basile, published in 1634.
Relevant evidence: No
