Complete and unabridged, with 56 full-page plates by Elias Martin, Edvard Munch and Caspar David Friedrich. Two students in Copenhagen, one born in a prison — the letters O.T. are branded on his shoulder, and they stand for Odense Tugthus, the house of correction — and the shame he cannot outrun through a life of learning and society. Andersen was a cobbler's son who arrived in Copenhagen at fourteen with nothing and was educated at the king's expense; his novels are almost forgotten behind the tales, and this one is about being marked for life. Fifty-six plates of painting from 1762 to 1907, among them works by Edvard Munch and Anders Zorn, carry the story's themes of family, shame, and the mark of origin.

Hans Christian Andersen

Autor

Hans Christian Andersen (Odense, 1805 - Copenhague, 1875). Poeta y escritor danés. El más célebre de los escritores románticos daneses fue hombre de origen humilde y formación esencialmente autodidacta, en quien influyeron poderosamente las lecturas de Goethe, Schiller y E.T.A. Hoffmann. En 1819, a los catorce años, Andersen viajó a Copenhague persiguiendo el sueño de triunfar como dramaturgo. El escaso éxito de sus obras teatrales y su insaciable curiosidad lo impulsaron a viajar por diversos países, entre ellos Alemania, Francia, Italia, Grecia, Turquía, Suecia, España y el Reino Unido, y a anotar sus impresiones en interesantes cuadernos y libros de viaje. Inspirándose en tradiciones populares y narraciones mitológicas extraídas de fuentes alemanas y griegas, así como de experiencias particulares, entre 1835 y 1872 escribió 168 cuentos protagonizados por personajes de la vida diaria, héroes míticos, animales y objetos animados.
