Wikipedia
"The Fir-Tree" (Danish: Grantræet) is a literary fairy tale by the Danish poet and author Hans Christian Andersen (1805–1875). The tale is about a fir tree so anxious to grow up, so anxious for greater things, that he cannot appreciate living in the moment. The tale was first published 21 December 1844 with "The Snow Queen", in New Fairy Tales. First Volume. Second Collection, in Copenhagen, Denmark, by C.A. Reitzel. One scholar (Andersen biographer Jackie Wullschlager) indicates that "The Fir-Tree" was the first of Andersen's fairy tales to express a deep pessimism.
Annotation
Literary fairy tale:
First sentence:
Draußen im Walde stand ein niedlicher Tannenbaum. Er hatte einen guten Platz; Sonne konnte er bekommen, Luft war genug da, und ringsumher wuchsen viele größere Kameraden, Tannen und Fichten.Last modified: 2024-01-24 (revision #170405)
