Foqion Postoli (1889–1927) was an Albanian novelist and playwright best known for his novel, ''Flower of Remembrance'' ((アルバニア語:Lulja e kujtimit)). ==Life== Postoli was born to a merchant family in Korçë and studied commerce in Istanbul for two years, living with relatives. He later emigrated to the United States, settling in Massachusetts. In his new home Postoli joined the Vatra, the Pan-Albanian Federation of America, was secretary for the Vatra branch in Brockton and worked on ''Dielli'' (''The Sun'', published by Vatra). Portions of his novels would be published as supplements to ''Dielli'' before their publication in book form.〔 On 4 January 1919, Postoli was a signatory of a memorandum sent to the United States government by the Congress of Vatra. The congress, held at Winthrop Hall in Boston, demanded the demarcation of borders based on the 1913 Treaty of London. In 1921, he returned in his home town in Albania to help establish the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania. Postoli died on 2 October 1927, at age 38. Postoli wrote during the final years of the Albanian National Awakening and Albanian independence. Although he lived in a different era than other ''rilindas'' writers, he reflected similar themes: patriotism, opposition to Ottoman rule and pride to the country's history. His 1919 ''In Defense of the Homeland'' was typical of his nationalistic, romantic work. Postoli's novels were often inspired by problems he observed. 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「Foqion Postoli」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
