Antoine Pol (born in Douai on August 23, 1888; died in Seine-Port on June 21, 1971) was a French poet. == Biography == As an artillery captain, he fought in the First World War, and later worked at the Houve mines in Strasbourg in 1919. In 1945, he became president of the Central Syndicate of Carbon Importers of France. When he retired in 1959, he was finally able to pursue his passions: poetry, books and butterflies. Pol is primarily known as the author of the poem ''Les Passantes'', set to music and interpreted by Georges Brassens in 1972 in his album ''Fernande''. Fabrizio de André translated the song into Italian in his album ''Canzoni'', which came out in 1974. Brassens' adaptation omitted two stanzas; Richard Parreau sang and recorded the entire poem in 1998. When Georges Brassens discovered this poem, he asked Antoine Pol for permission to set it to music, which the latter granted. Brassens, wanting to meet him, arranged for a meeting to take place after a month, but Pol died away a week before he could meet him. One of Brassens' greatest regrets was never to have met him. 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「Antoine Pol」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
