Last year, worldwide, we celebrated the bicentenary of the birth of Andersen.
Andersen, who wrote stories, plays, vaudevilles has really showed with his stories. It was in 1835 that are published "The stories told for children
Andersen was thirty years, but he wrote until his death, a collection of stories to the delight of his contemporaries. Its fame crossed borders and we all have in mind these little stories, we offered as a gift through time and space:
The ugly duckling-The new clothes of the emperor-the-wild swans The shepherdess and the chimneysweep-The Little Mermaid The little-girl-allumettes The Snow Queen ...
What characterizes Andesen, compared with Grimm, for example, it is beyond folklore. His inspiration so subtle can not in a collection of tales from the folk tradition. It creates a totally personal work, full of humanity that draws on the attendance of children. For him, the most ordinary pretext for invention: an object, a plant, a dwarf, a princess. In a word simply object to the fairy topped mystery.
Obviously, the bicentenary of his birth has given rise to some publication which some great qualities.
In 2005 is published by North-South famous story The Little Mermaid, illustrated by Lisbeth Swerger.
A tale that has spread around the world. The image of the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen is present in everyone's minds. The little mermaid whose eternal loneliness, despite the many bystanders that came to him to find perhaps an echo of their own loneliness. Who knows? This is certainly the most famous tale. The most loved? Well, I do not know.
But the work presented here is a total beauty. Illustrating a pace well translated. The reasons follow the narration: marine grounds and flowers and insects. Large plates, with a fascinating beauty, punctuate the text with regard to drive real tables.
An album that dazzles the musicality of the text and images.
