Aleksandar "Aco" Šopov ((マケドニア語:Ацо Шопов), (:at͡sɔ ˈʃɔpɔf), Štip, 1923 - Skopje, 1982) is a Macedonian poet. He is considered one of the most important poets of Southeastern Europe. He took part in World War II in Yugoslavia (1941–45) and his poems written at the time were published as ''Pesni'' (Poems) in Belgrade and Kumanovo in 1944, and in Štip the following year. ''Pesni'' was the first poetry collection published in the Macedonian language in free Macedonia after the war. Šopov was member of the Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts (1967) and corresponding member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts (1968). He graduated from the philosophy department of the University in Skopje and the Higher Political School in Belgrade. He was president of the Translators’ Union and the Writers’ Union of the Socialist Republic of Macedonia in the 1950s and 1960s, and of the Writers’ Union of Yugoslavia from 1965 to 1969. From 1970 to 1977 he was a diplomat.〔(Free dictionary )〕 ==Biography== His childhood was haunted by the specter of incurable disease, death, sadness, and loneliness - themes that would later permeate his poetry. He referred to his youth as the "Hundred-headed monster." When he was just eleven years old, his mother, whom he had cared for alone, died prematurely of a serious illness .〔Šopova Jasmina: ''Po-tragite na Aco Šopov'', Skopje, Sigmapres, 2003.〕 He began writing poetry in a school notebook at the age of fourteen. In 1943, at the age of 19, Aco Šopov became engaged in the Yugoslav Partisans' resistance to the Nazi occupying forces. He continued writing poetry during this period and found his subject matter in his own experience. He proved to be a highly personal poet even when chronicling events of a social or patriotic nature, as when describing the death of a much-loved woman and fellow partisan, Vera Jocić. With his poetry book ''Stihovi na makata i radosta'' (Verses of Suffering and Joy), Šopov moved away from socialist realism. Because of this departure in the early 1950s, Šopov's poetry was initially criticized but came to be recognized several years later. Speaking with his own voice, Šopov charted his own course in poetry,〔(Dictionary of Literary Biography on Aco Šopov )〕 without being a dissident. "The greatest challenge and the greatest moral responsibility of the poet," he said in an interview, "is to find the right words to the contents and ideas he wants to express in an authentic and inimitable way. If it fails, the poem is pulled out of its socket, the word becomes a lie." In 1967, Aco Šopov became one of the founding members of the Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and was awarded with the AVNOJ in 1970.〔Aco Šopov (1923–1982): Festschrift presented as a memorial to Aco Šopov : a member of Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts〕 The AVNOJ Prize is the highest recognition in the area of science and art in the frames of the former Yugoslavia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aco Šopov」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
