Today's story: The Wild Swans
"The Wild Swans" is a literary fairy tale by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. First published in 1838, it tells the story of a young princess named Elisa and her eleven brothers, who are cursed by their wicked stepmother. Here is a summary of the plot:
The Family: Elisa and her eleven brothers live happily with their father, the king. Their mother has died, and their father remarries a beautiful but evil queen.
The Curse: The wicked stepmother becomes jealous of the children. She turns the eleven princes into swans and banishes Elisa from the palace.
Elisa's Journey: Elisa finds refuge in a peasant's cottage, where she lives for some time. She eventually learns of her brothers' fate and sets out to find them.
The Swans: Elisa finds her brothers, who can only return to human form at night. They tell her that the curse can be broken if she makes eleven shirts out of nettles, a painful and difficult task. During this process, she must not speak or laugh, or the spell will become permanent.
The Task: Elisa diligently works on the shirts, enduring great pain from the nettles. She is discovered by the king of a neighboring country, who falls in love with her and takes her to his palace.
The Trial: Although Elisa continues her work in the palace, the archbishop becomes suspicious of her silence and believes she is a witch. She is arrested and sentenced to be burned at the stake.
The Rescue: On the day of her execution, Elisa finishes the shirts and throws them over her brothers, who regain their human forms just in time to save her. One sleeve is unfinished, so the youngest brother retains a swan's wing.
The Happy Ending: Elisa's innocence is proven, and she marries the king. They live happily ever after, and her brothers are restored to their human forms, except for the youngest brother, who keeps one swan's wing as a reminder of their ordeal.
"The Wild Swans" is a tale of bravery, sacrifice, and the enduring power of love and family. It highlights themes of perseverance and the triumph of good over evil.
