HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN Hans Christian Andersen is one of the world's best known and most translated authors. The Danish writer is especially famous for his many lovely tales and fairy tales like 'The Ugly Duckling' and 'The Little Mermaid.' Andersen considered his own life beautiful and exciting as it was as a sort of fairy tale. With his unique abilities and great talent he carved out a most unusual and exciting career for himself, starting out as a poor cobbler's son and ending up as a respected international author who became a European celebrity, courted by princes and kings. His literary work is extremely comprehensive: 175 tales and fairy tales, 800 poems, 6 novels, autobiographies, innumerable travel descriptions, and works for the theatre. This Odense City Museum's traveling exhibition presents 20 printed panels illustrating the life, career and art of Hans Christian Andersen by means of text and colorful images. The display follows the writer from his birth in Odense in 1805 through his life in Denmark and Europe to his death in Copenhagen in 1875. The back side of the printed panels contain reproductions of his paper cuts, which he created throughout his life. A multimedia package is included with the Exhibit. It is available on reserve in the Media Materials Services unit of the Holland/New Library (adjacent to the exhibit itself). The multimedia package has special sections for children, as well as recordings of actors reading well-known Andersen fairy tales, songs from the Danny Kaye movie about Andersen's life, and much more.

Reared in poverty, he left Odense at 14 for Copenhagen. He failed as an actor, but his poetry won him generous patrons including King Frederick VI. In 1829 his fantasy A Journey on Foot from the Holmen Canal to the Eastern Point of Amager was published, followed by a volume of poetry in 1830. Granted a traveling pension by the king, Andersen wrote sketches of the European countries he visited. His first novel, Improvisatoren (1835), was well received by the critics. His sentimental novels were for a time considered his forte. However, with his first book of fairy tales, Eventyr (1835), he found the medium of expression that was to immortalize his genius. He produced about one volume a year and was recognized as Denmark's greatest author and as a storyteller without peer. His tales are often tragic or gruesome in plot. His sense of fantasy, power of description, and acute sensitivity contributed to his mastery of the genre. Among his many widely beloved stories are “The Fir-Tree,” “The Little Match Girl,” “The Ugly Duckling,” “The Snow Queen,” “The Little Mermaid,” and “The Red Shoes.”

In 1835 he published Fairy Tales, Told for Children , a successful compilation of tales which included Little Match Seller The Tinder Box Little Tiny or thumbeling The Little Mermaid The Princess and the Pea The Emperor's New Suit The Brave Tin Soldier The Snow Queen The Swineheard and The Ugly Duckling , among others.

He found his sources of inspiration in popular tales, taking his characters and plots from legends, history or everyday life. He wrote 164 tales meant not only for children but also for adults, because of their poetic imagination and the morals hiden in every tale. The "official" Andersen illustrators were two Danish artists chosen by him to illustrate the collected Danish editions of his stories. They were Lieutenant Wilhelm Pedersen (1820-1859) and Lorenz Frolich (1820-1908).

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Andersen, Hans Christian (1805-1875) Danish fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen was probably bisexual in orientation, if not necessarily so in action. He fell in love with both men and women, though he may well have remained a virgin. His emotional attachments often display a triangular structure involving both sexes. Queer readings of his life and work are needed, especially since his sexuality remains a controversial topic. "The Ugly Duckling" Andersen fictionalized his biography as a wonderful fairy tale, even naming his autobiograpy The Fairy Tale of My Life (1947). There is indeed something miraculous about the transformation of a poverty-stricken child into a world-renowned writer. Sponsor Message. The son of a poor shoemaker and an illiterate laundry woman, Andersen was born on April 2, 1805. His childhood was marked by poverty and little education. The eccentric boy left his native Odense on the island of Funen to arrive penniless in Copenhagen at the age of fourteen. In spite of his odd looks and behavior, he possessed a singular charm. He managed to win the hearts of leading bourgeois families, who sponsored his education. Andersen graduated from the gymnasium (i.e., high school) in 1828, after several painful years of scholarly discipline, and published his first novel shortly afterwards in 1829. This breakthrough was followed by other novels, travel books, dramas, autobiographies, and poetry, which quickly established him as a leading Danish man of letters. In 1837, he began writing the fairy tales that won him international fame and access to the royal houses and cultural elites of Europe.
