Via the Wikipedia rabbit hole, I recently discovered that 'Sleeping Beauty' was written & published as an 'original literary tale' by Charles Perrault in Histoires ou contes du temps passé. The entry for the latter, however, suggests that at least some of the fairy tales he wrote for that collection had their roots in popular folk tales of the time.

What I am looking for help finding - and honestly am not sure how to effectively do so, my usually excellent google fu is scrambled - are the following:

proto texts, related texts, transformative texts, and a good English translation of the original French text )

Any suggestions or advice, no matter what scale, are very much welcome.
