Hans Christian Andersen, página 16 de 48

Este es un cuento imaginativo de un vanidoso Emperador que resulta burlado a causa de su propia vanidad y falta de sinceridad. El Emperador, a quien engañan dos bribones que se hacen pasar por tejedores, es victima de sus deseos de parecer atractivo e inteligente. Al final la verdad es puesta de manifiesto por un inocente niño y el Emperador queda como el mas necio. Una interesante enseñanza sobre la vanidad y la virtud de la sinceridad.

Appena uscita la prima edizione di questo libro, Giosue Carducci scriveva alla signora Maria Pezze-Pascolato la seguente lettera:Carissima Signora,Tra le tante cose di cui vo debitore alla signora Astrid Ahnfelt metto ora per prima la idea che ha ispirato in Lei di mandarmi in dono le novelle di Andersen.

L'emperador Drapets es tan presumit que nomes pensa en vestits, sabates i barrets. Un bon dia arriben a la ciutat dos sastres que diuen que saben cosir uns vestits extraordinaris que nomes poden veure les persones intel*ligents. L'emperador queda impressionat i els contracta perque n'hi facin un. Pero els sastres son, en realitat, dos estafadors que no paren de demanar coses: botons d'or, sivelles de plata, perles... L'emperador els fa portar tot el que demanen, i ells s'ho guarden a les seves maletes. Mentrestant, fan anar el teler buit dia i nit, per fer veure que treballen de debo. Quan diuen que han acabat el vestit, ni l'emperador ni ningu de palau no el veu, pero ningu no gosa dir res per por que el prenguin per ximple. Llavors s'organitza una desfilada perque la ciutat contempli el vestit magic; pero el que veu la gent es l'emperador en calçotets, tot i que ningu no ho reconeix. Fins que una nena crida que l'emperador va despullat, i aleshores tothom s'adona de l'engany dels falsos sastres, que han aprofitat la desfilada per fugir d'aquell pais de rucs amb les maletes plenes de tot el que han arreplegat.

El libro que tienes en tus manos no es una obra religiosa, es una representación literaria, creada por autores mundialmente reconocidos, de la sempiterna lucha entre el bien y el mal, entre lo justo y lo inaceptable, entre lo correcto y lo erroneo. Una disputa que esta grabada a fuego en nuestros corazones en las figuras de los angeles y los demonios. Los primeros simbolizan el amor, la bondad y el altruismo; los segundos, el odio, el terror y la ira. Mientras que los seres malignos se presentan ante la humanidad con infinitas (y malevolas) caras y un baul lleno de trucos para hacernos caer en la tentacion, los seres angelicales vienen encarnados normalmente como entes de luz, criaturas de gran pureza que tienen como funcion principal ayudarnos a crecer como personas y alentarnos a sortear los peligros de la vida. Aqui encontraras relatos de intriga, miedo, humor, fantasia, magia, ciencia ficcion..., una amalgama de visiones de una misma batalla. ¿Quien crees que ganara?

Érase un emperador muy presumido. Tenía un traje para cada hora del día y pasaba mucho tiempo mirándose y remirándose en todos los espejos de su magnífico palacio.
