À propos de cet audio
In this episode, Mads Sohl Jessen and Holger Berg explore Andersen’s 1869 story "The Comet"—a poetic meditation on time, science, and human wonder. From the story’s publication in an American journal to its portrayal of a boy who as an old man witnesses the same comet decades apart, they discuss how Andersen fuses astronomy, superstition, and faith. Discover how this tale reflects Andersen’s lifelong fascination with science, and his belief in the immortality of the human soul.
Key moments: Andersen’s cosmic imagination, the science of comets, and the story’s moving finale.
