Before his death in 1875, Andersen regularly traveled around Europe, and was enthusiastically welcomed everywhere he went. Because he had always wanted to be famous, he worked hard to gain a reputation in European literary circles. Being a rather vain man, he complained in “The Fairy Tale of My Life,” one of three autobiographies he wrote, that people were not interested in his “serious” writing.
安徒生在1875年去世前，定期游歷歐洲各地，所到之處他都受到了熱烈的歡迎。由于安徒生長久以來一直渴望出名，于是他發(fā)奮工作以求能在歐洲文壇獲得聲望。安徒生是個頗為自命不凡的人，在他所著的三本自傳之一的《我童話般的人生》一書中，他抱怨人們對他“嚴肅”的作品不感興趣。
