Into the Mind of Hans Christian Andersen

"Hans Christian Andersen is a product of two towns, two social environments, two worlds, and two eras," says John Demilius. Andersen was born on April 2, 1805 in Odense, Denmark. As poor shoemaker and laundry woman's only child, Andersen experienced a lower quality of life. When I was young, he walks in a local town. He often goes to the old man in Odense, where the old lady speaks of his old story and legend, and they are told when they are children.

British journalist Anne Chisholm is reviewing Hans Christian Andersen. With beautiful singing and enthusiasm, he was laughed at being cruelly made teased by other children. The son of an ugly duck is a swan child whose egg is accidentally caught in the duck's nest. Andersen was an illegal son of Prince Christian Frederick (later Danish Christian 8 VI), presuming that he had discovered this someday before writing a book, then this is not the only swan in this story. It is a metaphor and genius of inner beauty, but also a secret royal family lineage.

Most people are familiar with the fairy tale of Hans Christian Andersen of the 19th century, Princess and pea story. As the story suggests, the Prince's mother designed a noble test where she put peas under 20 mattresses: if the princess must sleep in this couch - a prince that notices insufficiency I may worry about her and worry about aristocracy. No matter how you look at Danish social conventions of the 19th century, this story can help you imagine how changes within the system can form meaningful events at a higher level I will. The pea is distorted and echoes outwards and upwards through the layers of many different mattresses. Sensitive people and motivated people may notice a slight distortion. But what is this relationship with self-tyranny?
