– Background –

Hans Christian Andersen, born on April 2, 1805 in Odense and died on August 4, 1875 in Copenhagen, was a Danish poet and writer who is best known for his numerous fairy tales, such as "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier" and "The Princess and the Pea". Andersen's literary style was characterized by his use of a child's point of view. Andersen was also a world traveler who visited several European countries, including Italy, Spain, and Portugal, and the Ottoman Empire. Andersen was a hypochondriac and had several fears. He was a pantheist, and his view of God was "naturalized." There have been debates about whether Andersen was homosexual, which began in the 19th century, and some scholars have analyzed his fairy tales and novels to examine the theme of homoeroticism. Andersen died at the age of 70 and was buried in the Assistens Cemetery in Copenhagen. He was a celebrated and internationally renowned writer during his lifetime, and a monument was erected in his honor in Kongens Have in Copenhagen five years after his death, according to his personal preferences.
