Podcast appearances and mentions of Hans Christian Andersen

"Da bi bralec mogel zavzeti pravilno stališče do načina, kako pravljice pripovedujem, sem prvim dal naslov: Pravljice, pripovedovane otrokom; svojo pripoved sem v svojem jeziku in izrazu vrgel na papir popolnoma tako, kakor sem pravljice ustno pripovedoval malčkom, in prišel sem do spoznanja, da so jih spremljali ljudje različne starosti; otroci so se najbolj zabavali nad tistim, čemur pravim štafaža ali nebistveni deli, starejši pa so se zanimali za globlje ideje." Tako v svoji avtobiografiji razmišlja eden največjih svetovnih pravljičarjev, Hans Christian Andersen, ki je izvrstno povzel vseživljenjsko aktualnost pravljic. Ob okrogli obletnici, aprila 2025 smo praznovali 220. obletnico njegovega rojstva, nedeljska oktobrska jutra na Prvem nadaljuje cikel radijskih iger za otroke, ki so nastale po njegovih zgodbah. Kot tretja slušni krog nadaljuje radijska upodobitev Kakor napravi stari, je zmerom prav. Gre za eno zabavnejših in hudomušnejših Hansovih zgodb, pripoveduje pa o tem, kako se ne trguje.

"Moja domovina, Danska, je poetična dežela, polna ljudskih pripovedk, starih pesmi in bogate zgodovine … Veljal sem za nenavadno bistrega otroka, ki da zaradi tega ne bo mogel dolgo živeti; mojo zgovornost so mi plačevali s pripovedovanjem pravljic. Vsa moja bližnja okolica je služila samo temu, da mi je polnila fantazijo." Tako v svoji avtobiografiji razmišlja eden največjih svetovnih pravljičarjev Hans Christian Andersen. Pisal je romantično ljubezensko, domoljubno in otroško poezijo, drame in romane. Napisal je nekaj realističnih pripovedk, po motivih iz danskih, nemških in grških pravljic, legend, ljudskih sag, zgodovine in književnosti. V njih pridejo do izraza njegova bogata domišljija, izbrušen slog, izreden dar za opazovanje in neizčrpna vera v zmago dobrega. Ob okrogli obletnici, aprila 2025 smo namreč praznovali 220. obletnico njegovega rojstva, nedeljska oktobrska jutra zaznamuje Cikel radijskih iger za otroke Hansa Christiana Andersena. Kot druge iz tega slušnega kroga so njegove Cvetlice male Ide. Ida ima cvetlice samo v vazi, njihove dehteče glavice pa ji v zimskem času največ pomenijo in povedo.

“O duende em casa do merceeiro” (1853) é conto de Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) que apresente os extremos, o pobre e o abonado, com um duende e um livro no meio. Vamos explicar. A começar, é preciso saber que a metáfora do comerciante está para a ideia de posses; e o duende é o seu funcionário. A metáfora do estudante, está para o pouco dinheiro e o fato de estar sempre em busca da sabedoria. A mulher do merceeiro era sábia, tinha o o dom da palavra. Por isto, à noite o duende pegava a sua língua solta e colocava nos objetos, para conversar. Eis que um dia o estudante vai à mercearia para comprar velas e queijo. As velas embrulhadas no livro acenderam a sua atenção, pois o papel era a página rasgada de um livro de poesias. Quando o jovem compra o livro, ao invés do queijo, prova que escolheu apenas a luz, só elas, posto que já tinha as velas. Curioso, o duende começa a espiar a meia água do estudante e, diante da face do menino, com o livro aberto, havia uma luz magnífica, do qual irradiava uma árvore, que cobria a sua cabeça. Esta é a metáfora da árvore da sabedoria. O duende, que morava com o merceeiro interessado nas papas com manteiga que ganhava no Natal, cogitou ficar com o estudante. Ele ficou muito entusiasmado. Um dia, há um incêndio e todos vão salvar o que há de mais valioso. A mensagem final do conto leva a pensar: “alimente o corpo, mas nutra o tanto mais que puder, o espírito”.

Support Our Cause at https://libri-vox.org/donateThe Little Mermaid" (Danish: Den lille havfrue, literally: "the little sea lady") is a very well known fairy tale by the Danish author Hans Christian Andersen about a young mermaid willing to give up her life in the sea and her identity as a mermaid to gain a human soul and the love of a human prince. The tale was first published in 1837 and has been adapted to various media including musical theatre and animated film. But this tale is not the Disney version, all cleaned up and made pretty. This is the way Andersen wrote it. The Little Mermaid is indeed at the happy wedding of her beloved prince, but she is not the bride. And then she becomes a big bubble. Curious?

Hans Christian Andersen, el gran escritor de cuentos danés, viajó a España en 1862, a los 57 años, después de haber fantaseado toda su vida con nuestro país. Pero como nos cuenta Ana Cañil, autora de "Los amantes extranjeros", la piel de toro no estuvo a la altura de sus expectativas, sobre todo porque, al no haberse traducido aún su obra al español, aquí nadie sabía quién era y no se le agasajó como él esperaba. Estuvo en la Alhambra y se la encontró en obras, y encima no le recibió la reina Isabel. Disfrutó de Sevilla, de Barcelona, de San Sebastián, pero le decepcionó Madrid, le espantaron las corridas de toros y no se vio asaltado por ningún bandolero, que era una fantasía muy habitual en los viajeros románticos del siglo XIX. En contrapartida, su libro, "En España", es tan  decepcionante para los lectores como lo fue España para el autor de "La Sirenita", "El soldadito de plomo", "El traje nuevo del emperador" o "El patito feo". 

Comenzamos el programa de hoy con Aprende a mirar y esta semana lo hacemos a través de la basura. Nos acompaña Alfredo Ruibal, un arqueólogo,  para ofrecernos un análisis sobre los residuos que generamos.  Además, en Maximalismos, la sección donde sacamos el ranking de los rankings, hoy buscamos la mejor voz y nos ayuda Ruth Suárez, cantante, vocal coach e investigadora vocal. La periodista Ana Cañil, que tiene un libro maravilloso que se llama "Los amantes extranjeros" sobre los viajes de extranjeros ilustres por estas tierras, nos va a contar la visita que hizo a nuestro país Han Christian Andersen en 1862. Era un enamorado de España en la distancia, la cuestión es si siguió amándonos una vez que nos conoció.  Y terminamos por todo lo alto con la necrovista de Pepe Viyuela.

Kim Brandstrup is a Danish born choreographer whose latest project, Breaking Bach, unites him with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. Kim often works with leading classical companies, but in Breaking Bach he directs street dancers, some with no previous stage experience. What will they all find in Bach's exacting rhythms? Kim took an unusual route into choreography – he initially trained in film, before finding that dance was the perfect medium for his narrative impulse. His recent rich, elegant ballets draw on Hans Christian Andersen and timeless Greek myths.Kim Brandstrup studied film at the University of Copenhagen and choreography at London School of Contemporary Dance. He founded his dance company Arc in 1985, forging a narrative style that owes more to his early cinematic training than to classical story ballet or contemporary dance. His has been commissioned by international companies including the Royal Ballet, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens and the Royal Danish Ballet. Throughout his career he has sought a theatre of movement that is both powerful and subtle, creating poignant and suggestive narratives that are intensely human and emotionally revealing.Kim Brandstrup's website https://kimbrandstrup.org/Breaking Bach at the Edinburgh Festival https://www.eif.co.uk/events/breaking-bachWhy Dance Matters is a dance podcast featuring inspiring conversations with extraordinary people from the world of dance and beyond.

El escritor y poeta Gabriel Ventura nos acerca a su ensayo El mejor de los mundos imposibles editado por Anagrama donde reflexiona sobre el reality shifting. Analiza este fenómeno, de dónde viene esta necesidad imperiosa de huir de la cotidianeidad y qué supone para quienes participan de ella. Además, nos acompaña nuestro colaborador Víctor Mora que en su sección Género fluido repara en la reprehensión de la melancolía en la ficción. También recorreremos la biografía de Hans Christian Andersen porque hoy se cumplen 150 años de su fallecimiento y os dejamos dos propuestas culturales: el Festival de Torroella de Montegrí en Girona y en el Museo Carmen Thyssen de Málaga la exposición American people.

Tonight, we'll read about the musical genius Franz Liszt as a child piano prodigy from the book “Life of Liszt” written by Ludwig Nohl. Liszt was a Hungarian composer, pianist and teacher of the Romantic era. He gained renown during the early nineteenth century for his virtuoso skill as a pianist. Since he often appeared three or four times a week in concert, it could be safe to assume that he appeared in public well over a thousand times during one eight year period. During his virtuoso heyday, Liszt was described by the writer Hans Christian Andersen (who has written many fairy tales featured by Snoozecast) as a "slim young man...[with] dark hair hung around his pale face". He was seen as handsome by many, with a German poet writing concerning his showmanship during concerts: "How powerful, how shattering was his mere physical appearance". — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

This week we're discussing... (sinister music plays) Horror, and whether we can sensibly describe some of the early modern and medieval drama as Horror? How far can we push a modern genre onto an older form. Joining me in this discussion is Dr Rebekah King, who graduated from Cambridge with a PhD in English looking at how magicians were depicted on the early modern stage. As well as being a researcher, she is an award-winning writer whose recent play ‘Moderation' followed the lives of social media moderators forced to see the worst things on the internet all day for a living. It transferred from an extended run at the Edinburgh Fringe to the Greenwich Theatre's ‘pick of the Fringe season' in October 2023. Dr King has also recently collaborated with composer George Parris on an adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's ‘The Shadow' which premiered at the Royal Academy of Music in January 2024.

Coucou everyone!You've heard the Disney versions — but the original tales? Not quite the same. In this episode of Europhile, we dive into the haunting, bizarre, and surprisingly spiritual world of Hans Christian Andersen. From a mermaid who gives everything up and turns into sea foam, to a thumb-sized girl nearly forced to marry a mole, to a mysterious Snow Queen who's more misunderstood than evil - these are not the stories you thought you knew. No happy endings. Just heartbreak, symbolism, and some of the darkest plots in European fairy tale history. Catherine then tells us about the Scandiavian concept of Logam.

Released for Sankt Hans—Denmark's midsummer celebration of fire and folklore—this episode brings the heat with tales that blur the line between fact and legend. Comedian Adrian Mackinder joins Derek, Brooke, and Conrad to explore everything from a court jester fired by a funnier king, to Hans Christian Andersen's fear of being buried alive.

I've been revisiting Ursula K. Le Guin's brilliant essay "The Child and the Shadow". Le Guin was defending fantasy against the sterile modernism of her era—but what happens when that defence needs to evolve? We're no longer fighting a battle between "good" and "bad" fantasy. Instead, we're caught in something potentially more insidious: the tension between authentic imagination and the ersatz. From the disaster of Rings of Power to the destruction of Star Wars, from AI-generated Jung content flooding YouTube to the Soviet-style creative orthodoxy dominating our cultural institutions—we're witnessing the systematic neutering of the imaginal. But here's the thing: they can't actually touch the real. They break upon authentic creativity like waves upon rock. Through Le Guin's profound analysis of Hans Christian Andersen's "The Shadow" and Jung's psychology, I explore why confronting our shadow isn't just personal development—it's the key to understanding why authentic fantasy endures while corporate imitations crumble. Plus, I reveal how Bulgakov got there first in The Master and Margarita, showing us exactly what happens when the vital imaginal meets bureaucratic control. This isn't just about books or movies. It's about the difference between surface-level engagement and the depths where real creativity lives.

Tonight, we'll read the second half to “The Little Mermaid” written by Hans Christian Andersen and adapted by Snoozecast. In the first half, we learn about the little mermaid and her family. The little mermaid saves a handsome prince from drowning at sea and falls in love with him from afar. Andersen's original tale shifts in tone during its second half, moving from wonder and curiosity to longing and sacrifice. The young mermaid, desperate to be near the prince, makes a pact with a sea witch—exchanging her voice for a pair of human legs. But her transformation comes at a great cost. This portion of the story is rich with emotion and filled with themes of devotion, heartbreak, and spiritual transformation. Andersen's writing doesn't offer the tidy happy endings we often expect from fairy tales—instead, it lingers in the gray spaces of love unreturned and the power of selflessness. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Tonight, we'll read the first half to “The Little Mermaid” written by Hans Christian Andersen and adapted by Snoozecast. The second half will air in our next episode. This story follows the journey of a young mermaid who is willing to give up her life in the sea as a mermaid in order to marry a prince and become human. Originally published in 1837, The Little Mermaid was part of a collection simply titled Fairy Tales Told for Children. Andersen, a Danish author known for his poetic and sometimes melancholy storytelling, wrote many tales that have become classics, including The Ugly Duckling, The Emperor's New Clothes, and The Snow Queen. Unlike the cheerful retellings most children grow up with today, Andersen's original mermaid tale is more bittersweet, filled with longing, sacrifice, and questions about the soul. The story is notable for its vivid underwater world, where mermaids live for centuries but do not possess immortal souls, and where the surface world is mysterious and dangerous. The little mermaid, youngest of her sisters, is drawn not just to the handsome prince she saves, but to the idea of a different kind of existence—one filled with love, human emotion, and perhaps, a soul of her own. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
