Scarce first edition of Andersen's third debut, his first novel, which brought him fame as one of the foemost novel-writers. ""Improvisatoren"" is considered one of the most perfect works by Andersen and the work that seriously made him famous, especially in Europe, where he first and foremost came to be known as an eminent author of novels. With his great first novel, Andersen paves the way for the new modern genre of the novel and places himself at the very front of this literary movement. ""Improvisatoren"" also constitutes Andersen's efforts throughout the 30'es to write in a picturesque manner. He is extremely proud to say due to his novel, his German translator, ""Professor Kruse [...] says that I am the greatest painter and Ørsted says that I should have the brush as well as the pen."" (Letter to Henriette Wulff, March 16, 1835). Andersen is extremely occupied with the novel and focuses greatly upon its reception. To his extreme joy, ""Improvisaoren"" is tremendously well received, and Andersen almost cannot believe his success. ""People adore Improvisatoren, everything I say and speak they find terrific, everything I utter an urge for they give me. They ask me what dished I would like, if I want to drive on trips. You can very well believe that Oehlenschläger at his Prince is not being flattered more than me. It is the first time that I feel the comfort of being a poet."" (Letter to Edvard Collin 5 Juli 1835). Later in the same letter, he asks Collin, if he has heard about the German translation and what impressions that is making - ""I long to hear what kind of impression it is making on the Germans.""In April 1835, he writes to Henriette Wulff: ""My novel Improvisatoren has now been published in Danish and is being published in German as I write... Never before has any work by me caught the masses so vividly,... ""I am ""on a wave""" but my heart is full of gratitude towards the good God" from him I feel that it is all a gift, a blessing, he has allowed to flow through my soul."" (Letter to Henriette Wulff, April 29, 1835). BFN 264.

(1842) 1 leaf 8vo. With a later note in tiny neat handwriting to lower blank margin stating that Andersen's original handwritten poem was printed in ""Hertha"" 1842, p. 5.
This excellent originally handwritten poem by the great fairy tale-author has the underlined headline ""I Øehlenschlægers Album"", but is also known under the title ""Paa Nordens Himmel i Stjernernes Flok"" (i.e. On the Sky of the North in the flock of the stars), which is also the first line of the poem. It was later printed, in the Swedish-Danish publication ""Hertha"", in January 1842, appeared again in ""Digte, gamle og nye"" in 1846, yet again in Andersen's collected works, vol XII, 252, 1879, as nr. 1 of the album leaves, and recently in a new modern Danish version by Johan de Mylius. This beautiful and treasured Andersen poem in full reads thus: Paa Nordens Himmel i Stjernernes Flok,Tycho Brahe har skrevet sit Minde,Og Thorvaldsen hug udi Fjeldets BlokSit Navn, det vil aldrig forsvinde"Du sang af dit Hjerte og Norden/ har hørtVed Dig sine største Bedrifter,Dybt Hjertets Gange har Hjerterne/ rørt,Din Storhed ei Tiden henvistner!Staaer Een i Stjernerne, Een i/ Steen,I Hjerterne veed jeg staaer ogsaa/ Een. We know that Andersen himself also treasured the poem and later also sent it to Zeise, who he hoped would translate it into German and have it published. BFN 413.

First edition of Hans Cristian Andersen's third publication in book form and his first dramatic work. This seminal publication marked his stage-debut and was not only the first work that he wrote for the theatre, but also the first of his works that was performed on the stage. It is with the present work, ""Love in Nicolai Tower"" that Hans Christian Andersen inaugurated his dramatical production, a genre that came to define much of his literary production for the next forty years, over the cause of which he produced about as many plays - i.e. ab. 40. The question as to acceptance from the theatre and the the set-up of the plays, however, -especially at the beginning of his career - would often postpone the actual theatre debut by many months, sometimes years. Thus, many of his early plays were only performed on the stage much later. ""Kjærlighed on Nicolai Taarn"", however, was accepted almost immediately and was performed already the following year, marking his theatre debut.This very early Andersen-book is not commonly seen on the market.BFN: 28.
