Carlos Mastronardi (1901 - June 5, 1976) was an Argentine journalist, poet, and translator. His works included ''Luz de provincia'', ''Tierra amanecida'' (1926), ''Conocimiento de la noche'' (1937), and ''Tratado de la pena''. His non-fiction ''Valéry o la infinitud del método'' (''Valéry, or the infinitude of method'') won the Buenos Aires Municipal Prize for Literature (1955). Other important works of non-fiction included ''Formas de la realidad nacional'' (''Forms of the National Reality'', 1961) and ''Memorias de un Provinciano'' (''Memoirs of a Man from the Provinces'', 1967). Some of his journalism was published posthumously as ''Cuadernos de vivir y pensar'' (''Notebooks of Living and Thinking'', 1984).〔mostly from Prieto, "Memorias…"; ''Tratado de la pena'' and the Municipal Prize for Literature are mentioned in Efemérides' "Algunos amigos…".〕 As a translator, Mastronardi was mainly known for translating the French Symbolist poets into Spanish. As a poet, although identified personally with the ''avant-garde'' of his time, he wrote largely in traditional forms rather than free verse, and rejected what he viewed as his contemporaries' excessive use of metaphor.〔Prieto, "Memorias…"〕 Born in Gualeguay,〔 Entre Ríos Province,〔Efemérides, "Algunos amigos…"〕 Mastronardi came to Buenos Aires at the age of 19. There he became a member of the Martín Fierro group (also known as the Florida group) and an intimate of Jorge Luis Borges, although they disagreed strongly about questions about aesthetics and poetry.〔 Mastronardi figures as a minor character in Borges's short story ''Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius''.〔Borges, "Tlön…〕 Mastronardi led a notoriously nocturnal existence. Writing of Mastronardi in 1986 in the newspaper ''El País'' (Madrid), Borges said of Mastronardi that "Like Auguste Dupin ... After a long period in which his work fell into obscurity, Mastronardi's works are () being re-published by Argentina's Universidad Nacional del Litoral.〔 == Quotation == "Lyric poetry, for many of its ... () ... practitioners, lacks all plan and requires no sacrifice. It allows the writer to follow the path of least resistance: everything consists of letting things be. In contrast, narrative, criticism, and essays (almost uncultivated among us), demand preparatory work and organic development." 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「Carlos Mastronardi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
