The Little Match Girl is a famous fairy tale written by Andersen, a famous Danish fairy tale writer. Published in 1846. This paper mainly tells the story of a little match girl who froze to death in the street on New Year's Eve when the rich family was beaming and drinking.
The little girl died with a smile on her lips, which was in sharp contrast with her real life of hunger and cold through the beautiful fantasy of lighting matches. Through this fairy tale, Andersen expressed his deep sympathy for the poor and his dissatisfaction with the society at that time, and mercilessly exposed the darkness and evil of capitalist society. Incorporated into the language book 14 of the sixth grade of People's Education Press.
Creation background
1845 10, Andersen went to Italy again. Christmas is coming, and friends in Gloucester Stirton have repeatedly invited Andersen to spend Christmas there. Andersen got into the carriage to Glouceston excitedly. In Glouceston, he saw the banner of "Welcome Mr. Andersen" hanging on the roadside, and the bookstore was full of fairy tales created by him.
Andersen's carriage moved slowly in the streets of Glouceston. He wants to experience the Christmas atmosphere in this city. However, at the end of the busy street, he saw a middle-aged woman begging weakly with a basket on her arm and a thin baby on her back. Not far away, a little girl who is only about five years old is selling matches, and her hands are frozen.
However, not many people passed by, and the little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes didn't sell a match. When Andersen came back, he wrote The Little Match Girl.
