内容简介

The 2005 bicentenary of Hans Christian Andersen's birth is an opportunity to re-evaluate the achievement of one of the great figures of the fairy tale and storytelling tradition, a beloved writer famous for "The Snow Queen", "The Little Mermaid", "The Ugly Duckling", "The Red Shoes", and many other now classic tales. Jack Zipes broadens our understanding of Anderson by exploring the relation of the Danish writer's work to the development of literature and of the fairy tale in particular. Based on thirty-five years of research and writing on Andersen, this new book is a welcome reconsideration of Andersen's place and of his reception in English-speaking countries and on film.
