Extractions: 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.

Extractions: Hans Christian Andersen was born in Odense. Before becoming a novelist and playwright, Andersen trained as an actor. His fairy tales began to appear in 1835, and soon they were translated into many languages. He achieved a reputation around the world for these stories, which combined originality and tradition, morality and sublimity. Danish writer who combined folk legends, moral teachings and humor with his own great imagination and produced fairy tales, which were not meant merely for children but for adults as well. Andersen used frequently colloquial style that disguises the sophistication of his tales. Before achieving success as a playwright and novelist, Andersen was trained as singer and actor. Many of Andersen's fairy tales depict characters who gain happiness in life after suffering and conflicts. 'The Ugly Duckling' is Andersen's most confessional work.

Extractions: Hans Christian Andersen On one of his many journeys abroad - there were 30 in all - the Danish fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen (1805-75) was in 1854 as so often before in Germany and Italy, with a brief stay in Austria. The extremes in an incredible life appear here in sharp relief: the poor childhood home in the provincial town of Odense and the position as a European celebrity, courted by princes and kings. In an international perspective it might seem remarkable that the proletarian child Andersen, who in the course of his social progress had personally experienced the sharp divisions of the class society, made so much of his friendships in royal circles. Was he a snob? Or worse still, a traitor to his class? His friendships with princes and kings were established of course at a time when revolutions were sweeping through France and Germany, and when the bourgeois intelligentsia was in the process of gaining political power. But neither must we forget that other internationally renowned artists, such as the sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen or the composers Franz Liszt and Richard Wagner (the first two were both friends of Andersen) were at home on the same luxurious surroundings. And finally it is necessary to realise that Andersen's Europe was not to any great extent that of royalty - it was the artists and the intellectuals who constituted his European circle of friends.

Extractions: Titles in Children category: Hans Christian Andersen was born in the slums of Odense. His father was a shoemaker and literate. His mother, who worked as washerwoman, was uneducated and superstitious, but opened for his son the world of folklore. Andersen's half-sister worked as a prostitute for a time. Andersen received little education, and as a child he was highly emotional, suffering all kinds of fears and humiliations because of his tallness and effeminate interests. Andersen's hysterical attacks of cramps were falsely diagnosed as epileptic fits. Encouraged by his mother he composed his own fairy tales and arrange puppet theatre shows. In 1816 his father died and Andersen was forced to go to work. He was for a short time apprenticed to a weaver and tailor, and he also worked at a tobacco factory. Once his trousers were pulled down when other workers suspected that he was a girl. At the age of 14 Andersen moved to Copenhagen to start a career as a singer, dancer or an actor - he had a beautiful soprano voice. The following three years were full of hardships although he found supporters who paved his way to the theatre. Andersen succeeded in becoming associated with the Royal Theater, but he had to leave it when his voice began to change. When he was casually referred as a poet it changed his plans: "It went through me, body and soul, and tears filled my eyes. I knew that, from this very moment, my mind was awake to writing and poetry." He then began to write plays, all of which were rejected.
