Andersen's life and creative information

H.C. Andersen (Hans Christian Andersen) is a famous Danish fairy tale writer in the 19th century and the founder of fairy tales in world literature. He was born in a poor shoemaker family in Odense on April 2, 1805. He studied at a charity school and worked as an apprentice in his early years. His father was a poor shoemaker who volunteered to fight against Napoleon's invasion. He died of illness when Andersen was 11 years old (that is, in 1816) after being discharged from the army. The mother, who was a washerwoman, remarried soon after. Andersen was tortured by poverty since he was a child. He worked as an apprentice in several shops and had no formal education. Influenced by his father and folk oral literature, he loved literature since childhood and dreamed of becoming a singer, actor or playwright. In order to find your own way out and realize your heart's wishes. In 1819, when he was 14 years old, he left Odense, which made him extremely depressed and contradictory, but gave him the inspiration to embark on the path of art, and came to the capital Copenhagen alone. He started out as a minor supporting actor at the Royal Theater in Copenhagen, but was fired because of a loss of moisture in his voice. From then on, he turned to study writing, but the script he wrote was completely unsuitable for performance and was not used by the theater. In 1822, he received funding from theater director Jonas Colin and studied at a grammar school in Slierse. The difficult road of life did not shake his faith, but instead made his heart surge with more excitement. This year he wrote the book "Youth's Attempt", which was published under the pen name of William Christian Walter. This pseudonym included the names of Shakespeare, Andersen himself, and Scott. Published his first poem "The Dying Child" in 1827. In 1828, he entered the University of Golhagen. After graduation, he has never had a job and mainly relies on royalties to make a living. His first important work, "A Walk from the Holmen Canal to the East Point of Amager in 1828 and 1829", was published in 1829. This is a travelogue with a sense of humor, and is quite similar to the writing style of the German writer Hoffman. The publication of this travelogue gave Andersen initial recognition from society. Thereafter he continued to write plays. After eight years of hard work, he finally showed his talent in the poetic drama "Alfsol". Therefore, he was sent to Slagelsee Grammar School and Helsingo School for free by the Royal Theater of Arts, which lasted for 5 years.

In 1831, he traveled to Germany and wrote travel notes on his way back. In 1833, he went to Italy and wrote a poetic drama "Egnet and the Mermaid" and a novel "The Improvisational Poet" (1835) set in Italy. The novel was translated into German and English soon after its publication. It won him international reputation and is his representative work of adult literature. In 1838, he received a writer's bonus and the state allocated him a non-public service allowance of 200 yuan every year.

"In order to fight for the future generation", Andersen decided to write fairy tales for children and published "Stories for Children". In the following years, a collection of such fairy tales was published every Christmas. After that, he continued to publish new works until he gradually stopped writing due to cancer in 1872. In the past 40 years, he has written a total of 168 fairy tales. The fairy tales created by Andersen can be divided into three periods: early, middle and late. Early fairy tales are mostly full of beautiful fantasy and optimistic spirit, reflecting the characteristics of a combination of realism and romanticism. His representative works include "The Tinderbox", "The Flowers of Little Ida", "Thumbelina", "The Daughter of the Sea", "The Wild Swan", "The Ugly Duckling", etc. In the mid-term fairy tales, the fantasy component is weakened and the realistic component is relatively enhanced. In lashing out the ugliness and praising the good, they express the persistent pursuit of a better life and also reveal the melancholy of lack of confidence. His representative works include "The Little Match Girl", "Snow White", "Shadow", "A Drop of Water", "Mother's Story", "The Puppet Show", etc. Fairy tales in the late period are more face-to-face with reality than those in the middle period. They focus on describing the tragic fate of the people at the bottom and exposing the coldness, darkness and injustice of social life. The tone of the works is low. His representative works include "Dream Under the Willows", "She's a Waste", "Bachelor's Nightcap", "Lucky Belle", etc.

In 1843, Andersen met Swedish singer Jenny Lind, and their sincere friendship became an inspiring force in his creation. But he was not a bed of roses in his personal life. He never married. His closest friends in later life were Henrik and Melcher. On August 4, 1875, Andersen died at Melcher's mansion in Copenhagen.

Andersen (1805～1875)

Andersen, Hans Christian

Danish writer. Born on April 2, 1805 in a shoemaker's family in Odense, Funen Island, Denmark, and died in Copenhagen on August 4, 1875. When he was 11 years old, his father died of illness, and he relied on his mother to do laundry for others to make ends meet. No formal education. His father loved drama and could recite many Shakespeare's plays, which had a great influence on Andersen. In 1819, in order to learn stage art, he went to Copenhagen alone and received help from some enthusiastic people. However, many stage practices showed that he was not suitable to be an actor, so he tried to be a singer. However, due to a severe cold that damaged his vocal cords, he had to give up his stage career completely and began to study script writing, which also failed. In 1827, his first poem "The Dying Child" was published. After that, he began to write poems, plays, travel notes and essays. In 1829, "A Wanderings on the Isle of Argo" was published and was well received by the literary world. In April of the same year, one of his light comedy "Love on the Nikolayev Tower" was performed at the Royal Theater. From 1831 to 1833, Andersen traveled to Germany and Italy. After returning home, he published collections of poems, travel notes, essays and novels. Among these works, the novel "The Improvisational Poet", which is based on Italian life, is the most outstanding. Shortly after its publication, it was translated into German and English.

Andersen often traveled at home and abroad. He has been to Norway, Sweden, France, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Asia Minor and Africa, and has published many travelogues. It was his fairy tales that made Andersen world famous. From the publication of his first "Stories for Children" in the spring of 1835 to 1872, he wrote a total of 168 fairy tales and stories, including "The Emperor", which satirized the emperor's stupidity, stupidity and the flattery of the ministers. "The New Clothes", "The Daughter of the Sea" which praises the pure girl's pursuit of loyal love, "The Nightingale" and "The Princess on the Pea" which satirizes the ignorance and fragility of emperors and nobles, and "The Little Match Seller" which describes the miserable life of the poor. "Girl" and "The Janitor's Son" as well as "The Ugly Duckling" and "She's a Waste" which reflect the unfortunate experiences and life experiences of himself and his mother.

Andersen's fairy tales are clear about love and hate, enthusiastically praising the working people, praising their kindness and pure excellent moral character; ruthlessly exposing and criticizing the stupidity, incompetence, greed and cruelty of the princes and nobles. His fairy tales and stories truly reflect the contradictions of Danish real society, with a rich flavor of life and romantic color and sentiment. In terms of materials, some of Andersen's fairy tales are based on folk tales, songs and legends, and a larger part are based on real life, which he created independently from his observations of life and social life. The genres of his works are diverse, including fables, stories and novels. Many of his artistic images, such as the emperor walking naked on the street, the ugly duckling and Thumbelina, have become allusions in European and even world languages. Many fairy tales have been adapted into Films, TV series and ballets are screened and performed in countries around the world.

Although Andersen's fairy tales were created for the "future generation", their meanings are extremely rich and profound, and they are also loved by adults. Has been translated into more than 80 languages. In order to commemorate this writer, a large-scale museum was built in his hometown of Odense to collect and treasure various versions of Andersen's works published in various countries.
