H.C. Andersens livssyn og kristendomsforståelse

View through CrossRef
This article is not a complete assessment of Kaj Mogensen’svoluminous doctoral dissertation. Instead, it focuses on two elementsin Hans Christian Andersen’s understanding of life and conception ofChristianity: 1) God as loving providence, and 2) the importance of thefreedom, endeavours and formation of the human being. It is arguedthat there is a range of difficulties in the first element – both in HansChristian Andersen’s thinking and in Kaj Mogensen’s own correspondingapproach – that are not sufficiently discussed in the dissertation. Itis also argued that Mogensen to some degree underestimates the secondelement in Andersen’s novels, poems and fairy-tales.
