Johannes V. Jensen[edit]

I added a statement about Johannes V. Jensen inverting the Andersen tale. He definitely did it (see here [1] and here[2])--first as an article for Politiken in 1937, then it was added to a couple of his collections (Ladybird and Myths). I stretched the point a bit by adding this when I haven't seen a proper source: I'm hoping that someone else (who can read Danish!) will pick up the ball and expand the statement. Jensen won the Nobel Prize for Literature; I feel that there was surely a reason behind his treatment of the tale. Richigi (talk) 22:23, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
