"Hans Christian Andersen wrote the best of the literary world with the eyes of a child and the pen of a poet. —comments by Chinese writer Zhou Zuoren.

"Andersen was lonely, intensely lonely. —Comment by the Russian writer Leo Tolstoy.

"Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales are second only to the Bible in circulation in the world, the Bible discovers God, while Andersen discovers man, and God ultimately comes down to man, while Andersen goes directly from man to man. This is the comment of the Chinese translator Lin Hua.

Ye Chao deeply agrees with Tolstoy's comments!

He said that Andersen was lonely, intensely lonely......

Ye Chao felt that Hans Christian Andersen was extremely lonely, so lonely that he didn't seem to belong to this real world......

Poor child, most likely, has never slept with a woman in his life......

He longs to hug women, but he is afraid of them......

I have to say, it's a real pity......

Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales have their own unique artistic characteristics, and his narrative perspective is very special - the original children's perspective of Andersen's fairy tales is a new breakthrough in the original omniscient narrative mode, that is, using adults as narrators.

The author assumes that the adult narrator is a child, and uses the child's way of speaking to create the language in the work, which is straightforward and natural, follows the child's way of thinking and psychological development characteristics to create the theme of the work, and uses some vivid but not outrageous, magical and non-grotesque storylines to tell profound truths.

In the process of reading, such works will not only feel many unexpected scenes, giving them fresh vitality, but also not feeling exaggerated, but increasing the sense of reality.

He used the narrative mode from the perspective of children to create a unique way of the genre of "Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales", formed his own creative style, and had a positive impact on the development of world literature.

With the affirmation of this narrative mode from the perspective of children in the literary world, a large number of literary works have also broken the traditional omniscient narrative mode and tried to try this new creative technique.

Many writers and theorists have begun to question and reflect on the traditional narrative method, realizing that the narrative mode of the past in which the omniscient and omnipotent, the narrator sees everything and grasps the whole picture, has lost its authenticity and lacks freshness, and the essay seems to be constrained, without unexpected gains and vitality of life.

His writing is witty and soft, agile and light, but also full of deep sorrow and sorrow.

Many of his techniques are delicate and unpretentious, and the themes are profound and not stereotyped. He can connect and magnetize the romantic, ancient, affectionate, and faint elements of the literary tradition with the modern, fast, indifferent, and casual emotions.

For example, stories like "The Girl with Fingers" and "The Old Man Always Does the Right Thing" make the simple heart, simple ideas, and ancient principles of life exude a rushing and nostalgic joy and sadness in the atmosphere of modern life.

Tragic narration with a smile and tender emotion is a distinguishing feature of the tragic beauty of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales.

Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales cover a wide range of subjects, and among his many fairy tales, tragic stories occupy a considerable weight, from his mid-term "The Daughter of the Sea" to his late "The Story Told by Old Johnny".

These works end with the disillusionment of man's hope for an ideal life and a better life, the failure of man's spiritual pursuit, the trampling of the beautiful soul, and the persecution or enslavement of good laborers.

In these works, what is beautiful and valuable is destroyed.

However, in the various tragic lives written by the author, we feel that this great writer used beautiful colors to imprint a layer of softness, timelessness and elegance on the tragic life and painful soul.

Tragedy is unusual in Andersen's world.

Whether it is "The Daughter of the Sea", the little mermaid who dedicates herself to her ideals, the "Mother's Story" to the mother who has searched for a lifetime and gives up the real life of her children because of noble maternal love, or it is a "Mother's Story" for those who are in a difficult situation, yearn for a better life, pursue love, but are eventually swallowed up by the dark society, and are unjust by fate and loyal to love (such as "The Little Match Girl", "Dream Under the Willow", "The Album Without Painting", "The Third Night", "She's a Waste", "Old Johnny's Story", Ib and Christine Jr."), Andersen expressed his sympathy, understanding, love, respect, and praise for them.

This emotion is expressed in his works for a long time.

It is precisely because of this special emotion that the author pours into his works that when people enter the tragic world of Hans Christian Andersen, it is easy to see the heart-shaking but rippling poetic, soft and warm scenes.

The mother who loved her son so much ("Mother's Story") sacrificed her eyes and even her head full of black hair in order to snatch her dying son from the hands of death.

The mother desperately searched for her son in order to regain her lifelike son from the hands of death.

However, when the mother learns from the Grim Reaper that the Grim Reaper will take her son to the blissful kingdom of heaven and the mother can only be sent to hell, the mother's choice is to leave her son to the Grim Reaper.

The work uses the seemingly ruthless choice of the mother to express the deepest maternal love, which can be said to show true love in a ruthless place.

Mirror the darkness of reality with the beauty of heaven.

Here, the greatness of mother's love and the mother's helpless choice also sound the tragedy of the real society.

It is this tragic artistic picture of the world that the author uses to convey his praise of maternal love, his understanding of his mother's behavior and his criticism of society.

Similarly, the little mermaid ("Daughter of the Sea") would rather sacrifice everything to achieve her goal in pursuit of the eternal soul and human love of mankind.

This daughter of the noble Sea King of the sea, when she met humans, she saved the prince's life twice. However, her selfless behavior was finally known to the prince, and she could only endure the emotional torment of her deep love for the prince in solitude and the reality that her loved one fell in love with another princess.

She gave up three hundred years of life, sacrificed beautiful voices, endured the mental torment of silent wounds, and the physical pain that she had to endure with every step of the way.

The purpose of the little mermaid's sacrifice is to win a piece of love in the world and the eternal soul of mankind, but her abandonment did not get everything she wanted. However, she has no regrets, and is willing to choose her own demise to prove the value of her pursuit.

This kind of strength and resilience that originates from the character's spiritual pursuit is determined by the character's solid ideological foundation for pursuing ideals.

Because the little mermaid knows that the realization of her ideals comes at a cost, once she is sure of the goal she pursues, she will persevere to the end.

The author places the character's sacrificial spirit and strong will in the midst of tragic contradictions, showing perseverance and tenacious perseverance in the little mermaid's choice of her own fate. The spiritual beauty of the tragic characters, the beauty of pursuit, and the beauty of ideals produce endless charm in the author's narrative of true beauty.

In his fairy tale world, Andersen also tells some tragedies of persistent pursuit of love.

In this type of work, the tragic ending of love is also filled with the emotion of beauty.

In real life, it is undoubtedly a great pain to yearn for love and pursue it hard but not get it.

It is entirely possible that this kind of suffering in the worldly life can be transformed into all kinds of "evil" behaviors, and the negative behavior of human nature is displayed. In Hans Christian Andersen's world, however, they have been quietly suspended or diluted, replaced by the characters' acts of kindness, their attachment to love, their infatuation, and their selfless devotions.

In the agony of a broken love, Knud ("Dream Under the Willows") has a sense of piety when he thinks of his love Johnny, and in the spiritual world of this lovelorn who is desperate for love, there is always the person he loves, so when he faces the reality of being forgotten by his lover with the beautiful emotions of a boy and girl, his dream still appears the figure of his childhood Johnny and the good old days.

And this dream made him feel that it was "the sweetest moment of his life".

In order to bring happiness to the people he loves, the kind-hearted Ibu ("Ibu and Little Christine") would rather break off the marriage contract with his lover and be willing to endure the bitter torment of emotions.

Years later, the man who had sacrificed his love for love took in the orphan of his former lover who died of illness in a dilapidated hut, and has since assumed the duties of the orphan's father and mother.

Here, the author undoubtedly looks at the tragedy of the world from the perspective of transcending sorrow and joy, and shows the great personality charm of the protagonist of the work, which can transcend ordinary love, so as to show the reader the charm and greatness of true love in the last purified love.

The works all make the reader feel that on top of the purified love, the protagonist's golden heart is so precious and admirable in a society that is polluted by money and indifferent.

The many tragic narratives in Hans Christian Andersen's world reveal the fact that the author uses tragic stories of different themes to show the beauty and goodness of human beings, and to highlight the tragic characters' yearning and pursuit of hope, life, love, and happiness.

At the same time, while exploring the aesthetic value of the tragic characters themselves, he also placed the noble life connotation and personality of the tragic characters at the high level of the human spiritual realm.

The poetic narrative of death is another feature of the tragic beauty of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales.

Death, the most taboo word in human beings, marks the end of life.

Therefore, in the literary descriptions related to death, they are generally indissolubly related to the mentality of sorrow, tears, pain, tragedy, and tragedy. What makes Andersen unique is that in addition to his indelible contributions to the historical development of world children's literature and his many personal characteristics in the creation of fairy tales, it is also because of the uniqueness of his works.

In Hans Christian Andersen's case, the author injects the most charming literary expressions in the world, such as smile and calmness, into the description of death, so that those who have gone through the course of life or experienced the tragedy of life, regardless of their age or age, no longer shed painful tears when they say goodbye to the world, but either freely integrate themselves into nature, or leave the world with a smile in a happy and beautiful dream.

In works such as "Grandmother", the author deals with death gently and beautifully.

This work embodies the author's deep nostalgia for his grandmother, highlighting the eternal beauty of her old grandmother, and writing about the spiritual beauty of her reminiscence of her past love.

In Hans Christian Andersen's writing, although his grandmother's face was "wrinkled and her head full of gray hair, her eyes were "as bright as two stars in the sky, and even more beautiful than the stars."

What she cherished was the rose that was caught in the Bible, and though it had withered, it was the spiritual sustenance of the old grandmother, for it had been given to her by the beautiful man to whom she had devoted all her affection.

The old grandmother smiled most gently only when she looked at it. The work is about death, but the author covers the dead grandmother with a layer of fantasy colored sand in a sad and elegant atmosphere.

Therefore, the death of a loved one, which was originally a sad one, becomes the disappearance of a body without pain, and this literary presentation of death with warm brushwork and poetic illusion gives Andersen's tragic works of fairy tales more aftertaste.

People, not perfect.

Ye Chao feels that a person, as long as he has his merits, is worthy of admiration.

So, the first time he came to Denmark, he came to the Hans Christian Andersen Museum.

The Andersson's House is located in the city of Odense in the middle of the Danish island of Finne. It was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary (1905) of the birth of the great Danish fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875).

The museum is a red-tiled and white-walled bungalow househouse, housed in a cobbled alleyway. The old buildings on the street make you feel as if you have stepped back in time to the 19th century when Hans Christian Andersen lived.

It's very historic, and it's also very fairytale-like.
