H.C.安徒生
如果我们从世界范围来点数被最多世人所熟知和喜爱的文学大师,安徒生肯定会首当其冲,因为自其童话问世以来,不同国家、不同肤色、不同语言、不同层次的人们,无论男女老幼,只要有过童年、只要童年时代受过些许教育,那么他们几乎都会知道“安徒生童话”。《丑小鸭》、《皇帝的新装》、《卖火柴的小女孩》、《海的女儿》……那么多脍炙人口的经典童话故事,陪伴一代又一代的人们成长,我们甚至可以说,安徒生的出现是个奇迹,安徒生本人就是一个不老的童话。“最经典英语文库”在第三辑里,将安徒生最精彩童话,包括上述精彩童话,统统收集成册出版。页面达900来页。价钱也最便宜。用纸也很讲究,是国际上最流行的轻型纸。开本属于国际流行开本。最重要的一点是,所收集的英译本,是在西方英语世界里最受欢迎,可读性最高的版本。
看英文版的才发现不仅故事好,语言也很优美,常常合辙押韵充满诗意,我们的童话翻译似乎不太在意这方面
我已经二十岁了,似乎再也无法进入安徒生的童话世界了!但英文版提供了一个奇妙的距离和语感,使我如孩童般深深沉浸其中!
练听力的尝试,希望日积月累有结果
只要你是一只天鹅蛋🥚,就算生在养鸭场里又有什么关系呢?是金子总会发光的!2020.3.19 安徒生的童话和小王子一样,其实都是在童话故事里面带着很丰富的人生哲理,读读童话,守护我们内心那一尘不染的天真与单纯! 一只天鹅蛋在鸭群中破壳了,但因为这只小天鹅长得很丑,不但没有被鸭群接受,挨啄、被排挤、被讪笑,而且在鸡群中也是这样。他因此觉得很自卑,因为自己长得那么丑陋,成了全体鸡鸭的嘲笑对象,连他的亲人们也排挤他。无奈之下,丑小鸭飞过篱笆逃走了。有一次,他遇到了一只猎狗,但那只猎狗只是闻闻他,并没有把他抓住。他暗自庆幸,“我丑得连猎狗也不敢咬我了!”他为自己逃生而庆幸,同时为自己长得丑而懊丧。在这以后,丑小鸭遇到了很多磨难。后来,对美好大自然、美好生活的向往与追求驱使着丑小鸭不再依靠别人生活。有一天,三只美丽的白天鹅从树阴里一直游到他面前来,小鸭认出了这些美丽的动物,于是心里感到一种说不出的难过。小鸭感到自己要游向他们,就算他们把自己弄死也没关系,因为他有一颗追求美的心。但他在水里看到的是什么呢,不再是那只丑陋的小鸭了,而是——一只美丽的天鹅!
这本书,是不是很多经典的安徒生童话都没有收录?🤨 打一般的原因之一。(不过反过来想,也好,看一些安徒生比较冷门的童话)。安徒生童话,动不动就church 、church bell 、god ……很好,才想起,安徒生是虔诚的基督徒,再结合他的人生经历,难怪是虔诚基督徒了.……去搜索“安徒生 基督徒”,会出来非常多基督教公众号推安徒生……所以安徒生童话,起码我跳着挑一些来看的,看到想弃书,简直是宗教寓言以及宗教安利书……尤其是第四个故事:ANNE LISBETH ,满满宗教忏悔故事.....还长……(其实前面3个故事就看得我想弃书😂😂同样的原因,宗教味道太浓)。另外,说是英文版,安徒生童话原版是丹麦语 + 一点德语,英文版是谁、什么时候翻译的?而且,有删减和改写吗?/而且看到某个基督教微信公众号说,安徒生哪些哪些故事、哪一句,是出自圣经哪些章节、哪一句等等。/还有一点,安徒生童话离现在,有200年了吗?多少还是要结合当时的历史背景来看的……/因为听说安徒生童话是黑童话,所以来找原版看,好,原版是丹麦语 + 一点德语,能有英文版看就不错了。一本让人不适的书,宗教味道挺浓,适合没有宗教信仰的家庭给孩子看??(没看完来评论,有点受不了……)/补充:刚才数了下,一共99个故事。安徒生一生写了168个童话故事。
It is winter , the old man of the former year ; he is not dead, as the calendar says , but he is guardian to the spring , which is coming.
说是安徒生童话,结果根本没有写和安徒生童话的事
还是英文我是中国人,读不懂。M1小学生。

The Brothers Grimm were collectors of true folktales - marchen, in German - who wanted an ethnographic survey of the newly-unified/unifying German state. They traveled the length and breadth of the German-speaking world and recorded enormous ranges of stories in their multiple forms as they appeared in different areas. Their morphological analysis of these stories - that is, their structural “dissection” of the plots and details of them - formed the basis of modern folklore studies. Anderson, in contrast, did not have national identity on his mind but rather moral education. While he based his original stories on the folk tales of Denmark and similar areas, his aim was to emulate the style of those stories to tell tales in order to reach the widest audience possible. Famously his original “Little Mermaid,” for instance, dies after making a bargain with the forces of evil AND SERVES HER RIGHT, goes the moral of the story. While there are morals in many of the German madchen collected by the Grimms, the lessons they teach might strike us as unusual. In “The Devil’s Stinky Brother,” for instance, the Devil turns out to be a pretty good employer who keeps his word even when the human he takes in doesn’t meet every piece of their original bargain. The human, in fact, ends up successful back in the mortal realm after his hitch with Old Scratch. So: Grimms = collectors who just cleaned up what they found into a canon of stories fit for analysis. Anderson = proto-Dickensian moralist who used folk tales as a template for original work.
