In this paper, I would like to look at Andersen’s international publication strategies less from a translation-theoretical perspective than from a book-historical and media-theoretical perspective.
In doing so, the discussion of Billedbog uden billeder (Picture book without pictures) will serve as an example of the very mobile publication strategies Andersen was able to use in order to react quickly to local demands. In this respect the analysis of Picture book without pictures could serve as an example for a corresponding investigation of the international publication-strategy of Andersen’s fairy-tale-collections.
