About the Merchant’s son’s character: Early in life he showed faith in his father, himself, the world… How did he change?  When he goes back home he is not recognized by the sentries of his hometown.  Then he changes into the shepherd’s garb.  Perhaps there is something of another world to him, and he isn’t to return to this world?    (From a discussion of “The King of the Golden Mountain,” by the Brothers Grimm)   Thank you for the likes!
