Hans Christian Andersen was a Danish author and poet. He was born in Odense April 2, 1805. Hans Christian Andersen's own life was like a fairy tale. He was born the son of a poor cobbler and he died a rich and famous man, celebrated around the world, the intimate of kings and queens. Although today Hans Christian Andersen is generally known as a writer of stories for children, but during his lifetime he was also celebrated for his other literary works- including six novels, five travel journals, three autobiographies and for many poems and plays.
When Hans Christian Andersen was 11, his father died. He was leaving the family more destitute than ever, and he was sent off to factory work. In 1819, at the age of 14, he left home and traveling alone to Copenhagen to make his fame and fortune. In his early days, Hans Christian Andersen wanted to become an opera singer. For this reason, he went to Copenhagen to become an opera singer. His voice was too weak. For this, he was accepted as a dance student at the Royal Theater. The Director of the Royal Theater took him under his shelter and remained his friend until the end of his life.
The Arabian
Nights stories are some of the world’s great treasures. These stories are existed for thousands of
years. It generally consists of tales from
Persia and Arabia.
The Arabian Nights is also known as
The 1001 Arabian Nights.
The Arabian
Nights include fairy tales,
romances, farces, legends and parables. These tales use a sweeping variety of settings and places, including Baghdad, Persia,
Cairo and Damascus,
as well as China, India and Turkey.
The stories are fanciful, sometimes are brutal
tales. The suggestion of the Arabian Nights is that a fantastically valuable
jewel exists, when it comes into contact with people, it actually changes their
lives. The jewels are the magnificently powerful art of these stories. There
may not be any better examples in the world of how art, trickery, magic and skill
can spin together and form a world that every reader wants to be interested. In
spite of the situation presented in any particular Arabian Nights story, the
theory contained in the story is that life is always worth living and that
human effort, along with human weakness, is a wonderful and fascinating thing
to behold. These stories form a strong connection between the ancient
civilizations of the East and those of the West.
