“The Grimm Brothers recorded the stories because fewer and fewer people were collecting and preserving them”
By the time the Grimm Brothers started collecting German folk stories ( the nineteenth century) German was a conglomeration of about 200 different kingdoms , not a sole country. Their effort was to revive the national culture.
“Their stories reveal truths about the conditions people lived in when the tales were recorded. “ and "The tales of the Grimm Brothers demonstrate how language and customs can create a bond between people."
The brothers Grimm transcribed the many stories they had learned over the years, but they did it in a more soft language and contente, suitable for many audiences. So theses stories could spread -preserving the national culture. Besides the folklore, they published about language, grammar, and old sayings.
Their literature contribution is perceived until today in german cultural heritage.

Answer:
Oxymoron:
1: O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!
Paradoxes:
2: What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young.
3: I can resist anything but temptation.
4: How is it possible to have a civil war?
Explanation:
Oxymoron:
It is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction.
e.g Fully empty, living death, O loving hate.
Based on this definition only "O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" falls under the category of Oxymoron.
Paradox: It is similar to oxymoron, but it is usually a statement with logically contradictory statements which on investigation may or may not be logically true.
e.g "Everything I say is lie" , Barber Paradox: "A male barber shaves all and only those men who don’t shave themselves. Does he shave himself?"
As we can find out there are no contradictory terms/words, but the statements which may contradict each other.
Based on the above, we conclude that sentence 2, 3 and 4 are Paradoxes.
