On April 2 this year, Hans Christian Andersen, the famous Danish Fairy Writer, will usher in our 200th birthday.

Report on April 2, 1805, Anderson was born in a slum in Danish City Odense. His father is a shoemaker, and her mother is a washingman. Through the advice of the scholar, Anderson is actually a private child of a Danish prince. Regardless of this statement, Andersen's childhood life is an indisputable fact.
Use the left to give cloth dolls
At that time, although Xiaofen's home was eating, it is not enough; although there are several books on a simple bookshelf, the family has no money to send him the above. Later, parents simply sent Andersen to a skill school specially opened for the poor.
However, young Andersen is too sensitive, even some neurogenesis. He always is very awkward in sports activities, and it is always quite quite catricted when you are with other children; he likes to cloth doll like a girl, and even the residual clothes are used to seize them.
Whenever a foreign actor goes to the small town, Andersen will always run to the entrance of the theater. Anderson believes that they are a special person. He seems to "ugly duck" in his own fairy tale, although born in the farm, it is incubated from the swan egg. In fact, Xiaoman did indeed showing different talents. At that time, his voice was also very good, even known as "Odense's Nightingale Bird." Sometimes, he will be invited to perform a performance at a banquet that has money.
When Anderson was 11 years old, he did the scene of his shoemaker. Andersen's mother is later dyed to drink alcohol addiction, and die in a relief.
After the father died, the life of the family became more embarrassed. He was sent to the factory, but he only took home for a few days. In 1819, he was only 14 years old to come to Copenhagen. He has already set a goal for his life: That is to enter the Royal Theater.
14 years old, only sorrow, brother, Kaghagen
Because in Copenhagen, I don't know, Andersen can only go to the door to go to the door. After the countless rejection, he came to the door of Zhu Shibei Scrney, the president of the Royal School of Denmark. Andersen's encounter, let itself a poorly born Schney deep sympathy. Sherni quickly smashed a money, giving Asen a cheap house, arranged him to make an apprentice in the Royal Theater.
In this way, Andersen began their new life. During the day, he wandered in the Royal Theater, and it was the most famous actor in the Danish Golden Period. In the evening, he returned to his dirty and simple hut. Time, Andersen still often hungry, buy some books with their own pitiful money.
In the next three years, Andersis firmly moved towards their "play career". However, unfortunate moments finally came. At the age of 17, Anderson, who started to change, no longer gone "night orchest" voice, his clumsy body shape is not suitable for ballet. Andersen was told that he won't have any future on the stage.
School experience becomes a lifetime
Since I don't have a career, Anderson began to focus on their own talents: he is determined to become a playwright. Andersen's second script has attracted the attention of the Royal Theater, Jonathan Collin, the latter arranged a scholarship funded by the Danish king. Andersen was sent to a grammar school in Copenhagen to go to school. This school is simply a nightmare for Anders, and classmates are more than six or seven years old, but in the basic education, Andersen is far behind them. Andersen's principal is a person who likes to satirize, humiliation and intimidation, especially for the fantasy. The principal prohibits Andersen to conduct any creative activities, he wants Andersen to understand that the humble origin is destined to have a low position.
In 1826, 21-year-old Andersen wrote a poem called "Dranky Child". Although this poem has later become one of the most famous poeties in the 19th century, the principal of Anderson said that this poem called "garbage" and began to make Asheng more vicious abuse. Finally, a teacher couldn't see the abuse of Anderson, and told Jonathan Collin, and Collin took Ashen's school and learned under the guidance of private family teachers. Although Collin has always helped Andersen, they reminded Andersen, he will never be one of them. Later, in Andersen, even if he was known worldwide, he was still the "son of shoemaker", "The" boy from Odense, accepts the Royal Theater ", and that" put the nose outside the rich people's glass window Little girl selling matches "
After returning to Copenhagen, only 22-year-old Anderson completed his first novel and went to spend money, and the result has been a lot of success.
Dickens is his worship
At the age of 29, Andersen began to create fairy tale. In May 1835, a brochure named "fairy tale" was published in Denmark, which included Andersen's initial four fairy tale: "fire", "peas princess", "Xiaoclas and Da Claus "And" Xiaoxa's flowers ". The third episode published in 1837 included "Mermaid" and "New Pack of the Emperor".
At the age of 33, the poverty haze was completely disappeared from Andersen's life. That year, Danish King awarded his life allowance. His fairy tale was translated into Europe and gradually spread to the world. The home door of the upper class is open to him, and he has also around a lot of countries. In 1847, Anderson came to the UK for the first time, and his fairy tale has published four versions in the United Kingdom in 1846. The famous British writer Dickens is one of the worshipers of Andersen. He even looking for a chance and Andersen's face, and gave his own signature collection.
Andersen's fairy tale world is full of funny and suffering
"Mermaid"
"Pea Princess"
"Ugly Duck"
"Mermaid", "Ugly Duck", "Little Girl Selling Complete", "The New Pack of the Emperor" ... For the fairy tale of Anders, maybe few people will feel unfamiliar.
In Andersen's hometown Odense, Anne Mary Mai, a literature professor in the southern Denmark: "Andersen's story is not only to listen to the child, and it is also to listen to the people. A story can also take into account these two people, really too It is incredible. "Anne said that before Anderson, there was almost no literary works for children, or in children's tone.
"Chocolate cake after porridge"
For more than 100 years, Andersen's work can be widely circulated and loved, and another important reason may be the sympathy in his work. Whether it is only because of the long-term special and the ugly ducks laughing, because the family is poor, the little girl selling matches on the streets, or the little girl who loves the prince, I have been affecting every reader. .
It is hard to imagine today, and Andersen's little stories have caused the sensation caused by Denmark and even the entire Europe. At the time of Europe, all children's literature also stayed on the boring, preaching, and Andersen's magical fairy tale as "chocolate cake after porridge".
He talked acrise with the children in vivid language, rather than tall to them. Moreover, unlike the folk story collected by Green Brothers, Anderson has completely created their own story. These stories do not happen a long time ago, but happened under Copenhagen and other familiar scenes. The story of the story is affected
Just as writer Wood Squag wrote in the preamble of Andersen's reputation for Penguin Publishing House: "It is hard to imagine, in 1835, when a child opens a small book that is not famous, see such a story How surprised when he would take a soldier on the road - one, two! First, two! He carry a military bag, hanging a long sword in the waist, because he has participated in several times War, now go home. He met an old witch on the road ... '"This unrestrained speaking and rich imagination will let you always want to read, this is Andersen's style.
In these works, Andersen has used a new style, and the close-away view of society, and the unique perspective, attracting readers step by step to follow him to creating himself.
However, although these fairy tags are funny, the language is humorous, but the ending is not all beautiful: the little girl selling matches is finally frozen; the little beauty is thrinded because of her loved on the prince, and finally become bubble Disappearing; a firm tin soldier and the paper people in love are also thrown into the fire burn ... Even a beautiful story --- Snow White, ugly duck, thumb girl and wild swan, throughout the story Always have a lot of suffering.
And these suffering may be the portrayal of Andersen's own life.
Andersen
To a certain extent, Andersen's life is a fairy tale. He left nearly 200 fairy tales, 6 novels, 5 travel notes, 3 autobiography, and numerous poetry and scripts.
However, Anderson has been aimed at all kinds of phobia. Because I am afraid of fire, every time he will carry a rope with you so that you can quickly escape from the hotel. Moreover, he has always thought that he would fall into a coma, and it was buried when he was alive. This thought has been in his mind, so that he asked his friend to swear, it must put him in the coffin after determining him completely. When he is traveling abroad, he will sleep every night, he will put a small note around, which is written above: "I didn't die, I just seem to be dead."
Love's road is rough
Andersen's love is quite bumpy, he is always easy to fall into a love river, and the woman he is always in love is in the people. He has fell in love with his friends, but later she married others. After that, Anderson did not hoped in love with the Swedish opera day, Jenny Lind, Andersen's "Nightlife Bird" is said to be created for her, because Linde has been hailed as "Swedish's nightingale". Not only that, now many scholars have convinced that Andersen is a "double love" person who also shows a strong interest in men. Anni believes that Anderson believes that Anderson's interest in women and men, "he has more than the body", "he highlights the big nose of him, maybe it is not a lucky person. ".
