Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When his father died, young Johannes did not know what to do. He was now all alone in the world and he was inconsolable. With his inheritance, he decided to explore the world and he had only one goal in mind: to be as good as his father in the hope of one day finding him again in heaven. Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl". His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.

Book excerpt: In 1840, Hans Christian Andersen left Copenhagen on a journey that would take him through Germany, Italy, and Malta, then to Greece, Turkey and up the Danube. With a poet's eye for detail, Andersen captures his visit to the Whirling Dervishes, the slavemarkets at a bazaar in Istanbul, the breathtaking beauty of the Asian coast, and his harrowing trip up the Danube, during which oarsmen rowed against the tide and each passenger endured a ten-day quarantine under prison-like conditions. This book itself is a remarkable journey, not just to exotic ports of call, but into the fascinating world of nineteenth-century travel.

Download or read book Hans Christian Andersen written by Sven Hakon Rossel and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 1996 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hans Christian Andersen is indisputably the best known of all Scandinavian writers, his tales and stories having been translated probably into more languages than any other work except the Bible. He is also one of the greatest travelers of nineteenth-century belles lettres and few were the major European cities, capitals, and countries he did not visit, many of them several times: Vienna, Berlin, Dresden, Leipzig, Weimar, Paris, and London. He met and became friends with some of the most outstanding representatives of the European artistic community: Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas père, Franz Grillparzer, Heinrich Heine, the Brothers Grimm, Wilhelm von Kaulbach, Franz Liszt, Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, Clara and Robert Schumann, to mention a few. Andersen was the first notable Danish writer of proletarian origin, and even though he was never able to overcome his personal traumas, he became extremely successful in climbing the social ladder receiving invitations wherever he went from nobility and royalty and being showered with recognition and decorations. He read aloud to and was feted by Maximilian II of Bavaria, Friedrich Wilhelm IV of Prussia, Grand Duchess Sophia of Austria, and Friedrich August II of Saxony. Even though he also was a frequent visitor at the Danish court Andersen always felt more appreciated abroad. In spite of Andersen's status as a world-renowned writer, no critical treatment has thus far discussed him as a key figure in European contemporary culture and a cosmopolitan personality. The contributors to the present volume -- all of whom are acclaimed Andersen scholars -- have made extensive use of the vast material available in Andersen's diaries, almanacs, autobiographies, and letters. Most of this material, now made available in English for the first time, allows a new Andersen to emerge, different from the traditional portrayal of him as a content and happy storyteller -- a myth indeed! To the contrary, all contributors of this volume discuss his complexity, the traumas and disillusionments of a professional artist constantly struggling to maintain his position and incessantly worried about running out of inspiration. This volume -- besides presenting biographical information in an international perspective -- focuses on Andersen's fascinating psychological make-up, his taste in music, literature, and the pictorial arts, the contemporary critical reception of his work, and explores his creative universe in a more general sense including his poetry, novels, plays, and travelogues. Andersen's overall artistic achievements are viewed in the context of world literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK I have fond memories of the winter nights I spent with my Grandma in front of a blazing coal fire. Draped with a thick tartan rug, her thinning crown of silver hair softly reflecting the burnt orange flames in the hearth, she would read fairy tales from the pen of Hans Christian Andersen. I would curl up beside her and let her lilting Irish tones take me to far-away lands with mischievous mermaids, beautiful princesses, and emperors who wore no clothes. Though they are now almost a century-and-a-half old, the power of Hans Christan Anderson’s timeless tales never seems to fade.

EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Hans Christian Andersen, born on August, 4, 1875, was a Danish novelist, short story writer, and author of fairy tales. The youngest child and only son of shoemaker Hans Andersen and washerwoman Anne Marie Andersdatter, Andersen was attracted to the arts from an early age. Aged just 14, he left the family home in Odense and traveled to Copenhagen, where he sought his fortune as a Soprano singer with the Royal Danish Theatre. When puberty brought about a change in his voice, Andersen was spurred on by colleagues to try his hand at writing. In 1927, the Copenhagen Post published Andersen's first poem, “The Dying Child.” His first book, a comic fantasy called A Walking Tour from the Holmen Canal to the Eastern Port of the Amager, was published two years later. The period from then until 1835 saw Andersen test his penmanship in a variety of genres with varying degrees of success. Andersen started his impressive foray into children's story telling with the publication of the first volume of Fairy Tales, told for Children on May, 8, 1835. Although the stories were initially ill-received by critics, Andersen continued in his prolific pursuit, publishing stories at least every two years to bolster the growing collection that would eventually bring him international acclaim.

Book excerpt: On the occasion of Hans Christian Andersen's bicentenary in 2005, a conference was held in Odense, Denmark. The chosen conference theme was Hans Christian Andersen between Children's Literature and Adult Literature. At previous conferences, focus had been exclusively on Andersen as poet and writer for adults, in which capacity he wrote novels, theatre plays, poems, and travel books. But faced with the world-wide celebration in 2005, it seemed proper to include the child aspects of his works in the scholarly discussion. In its wide range of themes dealing with both adult and child aspects of Andersen's texts, this volume - consisting of papers presented at the Odense conference - does justice to the whole of Andersen, whose immortal genius has a message for young and old all over the world.
