Abstract
Dans De vilde Svaner (Les cygnes sauvages), conte des Eventyr, fortalte for Børn (Contes, racontés aux enfants), H. C. Andersen raconte une histoire très proche de celle de Die sechs Schwäne (Les six cygnes), des Kinder- und Hausmärchen (Contes de l'enfance et du foyer) des Grimm. On peut fort justement se demander si l'auteur danois ne réécrit pas le Märchen de 1812 lorsqu'il publie son eventyr, en 1838. Mais l'étude de plusieurs récits d'enfants transformés en cygnes - de l'histoire du septième sage du Dolopathos de Jean de Haute-Seille, à la fin du xiie siècle, et Die sieben Schwäne, un Feen-Märchen de 1801, à De elleve Svaner de Winther, en 1823 - montre qu'Andersen réécrit vraisemblablement ce dernier texte danois et que le dialogue intertextuel avec les Grimm s'effectue sur un autre mode. L'auteur des Eventyr, fortalte for Børn se positionne par rapport aux Kinder- und Hausmärchen, développant ainsi une nouvelle conception du genre qui ressort de la comparaison des manières de raconter propres à chaque auteur, leur plume.
It is the pen which makes the tale. the Grimm brothers' Die sechs Schwäne and Christian Andersen's De vilde Svaner
In De vilde Svaner, a tale from Eventyr, fortale for Børn, H. C. Andersen tells a story that is very close to that of Die sechs Schwäne from the Grimms' Kinder- und Hausmärchen. One could legitimately wonder whether the Danish author was inspired by the 1812 Märchen when he published his own eventyr in 1838. The study of other narratives about children transformed into swans (including the story of the seventh wise man in Jean de Haute-Seille's Dolopathos at the end of the twelth century; Die sieben Schwäne, a Feen-Märchen from 1801; and Winther's 1823 De elleve Svaner) shows that Andersen rewrote this last Danish text and that the intertextual dialogue with the Grimms takes place at another level. Andersen distinguishes himself from the Grimms by developing a new conception of the genre, which becomes clear in his very different way of telling a tale.
