Finally, when he was 17, Jonas Collin, a director of the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen discovered Andersen. After hearing Andersen read a play, Collin realized that he had talent. And he got money from the king for Andersens education.

　　In 1828, Andersen passed the entrance examinations to the university in Copenhagen. His writings were first published in 1829. In 1833, he received grant money for travel, which he used to visit Germany, France, Switzerland, and Italy. These journeys were recorded in his travelogues (旅行见闻). In 1835, Andersen published Fairy Tales for Children, which contained four short stories. He eventually wrote around 168 fairy tales. They achieved success in his life-time and were widely published and translated.

　　Unhappiness also found its way into many of his tales which were not meant merely for children but for adults as well. He used very simple language and style to disguise the moral teachings of his tales.

　　Andersen also wrote novels, plays and poems. He died at his home in Rolighed on August 4, 1875.
