Aleksandër Stavre Drenova, best known under his pen name Asdreni (11 April 1872 – 1947), was one of the most well-known Albanian poets. One of his most recognizable poems is the Albanian National Anthem, ''Hymni i Flamurit''. ==Biography== Born in the village of Drenovë, near Korçë, he studied at a Greek school in his village. His father died when he was just thirteen. In 1885, Drenova moved to Bucharest, Romania, where he rejoined his brothers. While there, he was exposed to other Albanian writers and nationalists (''see Albanians of Romania''). In 1904, Asdreni published his first collection of ninety-nine poems called ''Rreze dielli'' ("Sun Rays"), dedicated to Skanderbeg, the Albanian national hero. His second ninety-nine poem collection, ''Ëndrra e lotë'' ("Dreams and Tears") was published in 1912 and was dedicated to the British anthropologist Edith Durham. Asdreni's third collection, ''Psallme murgu'' ("Psalms of a Monk"), came in 1930. His poem "Kënga e bashkimit" (The Song of Unity), published in the volume Ëndrra ()e lotë (“Dreams and tears”, 1912), is a clear adaptation of Hora Unirii of Vasile Alecsandri.〔Robert Elsie, Albanian literature: a short history, 2005, p.104〕 After a brief return to Albania in 1914, Aleksandër returned to Romania and continued to take interest in the Albanian national movement. He visited Albania again in 1937, but he soon after again returned to Romania, where he lived the rest of his life. 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「Aleksandër Stavre Drenova」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
