Hovhannes Hovhannisyan ((アルメニア語:Հովհաննես Հովհաննիսյան), – 29 September 1929) was an Armenian poet, linguist, translator and educator. He was a key contributor to the Ashkharabar (Modern Armenian) literature movement and a promoter of literacy in Armenia. He has been called the founder of Classic Armenian poetry. ==Biography== Hovhannisyan was born into a peasant family in Vagharshapat, then within the Erivan Governorate of the Russian Empire. He attended parochial school in Armenia before studying in Moscow at the Lazaryan Language Institute (1877–83) and Moscow State University (1884-88).〔 In 1989, he traveled around Europe visiting various cities, including Constantinople, London, Paris and Vienna. Hovhannisyan returned to Vagharshapat and began his teaching career at Gevorkian Seminary, lecturing on Greek and Russian languages and literature. He taught until 1912.〔 Hovhannisyan greatly enriched Modern Armenian through his own work as well as translations. Together with Russian writer Valery Bryusov, he became the first to translate ancient Armenian manuscripts into Modern Armenian. He also translated works from classic and then-contemporary writers, including Homer, Shakespeare, Goethe, Hugo, Ibsen, Nekrasov, Pushkin, and Schiller.〔 He was a supporter of the 1917 Russian Revolution and the creation of the Soviet Union. In 1922, he worked in the Council of People's Commissars setting up the new Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic.〔 Hovhannisyan died in 1929 in Yerevan, aged 65. He was buried at the old Mkher cemetery in the city, which was soon after developed into the Komitas Pantheon, the resting place for many of Armenia's most prominent cultural icons. 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「Hovhannes Hovhannisyan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
