Joel Lehtonen (11 November 1881 – 1934) was a Finnish author, translator, critic and journalist. He was born in Sääminki (now part of Savonlinna). His childhood was fatherless and poverty-stricken, his mother suffered from mental frailties and Joel himself was forced into paupery. Joel's foster mother supported his schooling and Lehtonen was able to study literature for a few years in the University of Helsinki, but dropped out without completing a degree. As an author, he began as a neoromanticist, but after the Finnish Civil War his outlook transformed into deep pessimism and disenchanted scepticism. Having suffered for years from various ailments, he committed suicide by hanging himself with a rope, that had been used to wrap up a parcel of books, in November 1934. ==Bibliography== *''Paholaisen viulu'' (1904) *''Perm'' (1904) *''Mataleena'' (1905) *''Villi'' (1905) *''Tarulinna : Suomen kansan satuja Suomen lapsille'' (1906) *''Myrtti ja alppiruusu'' (1911) *''Rakkaita muistoja'' (1911) *''Punainen mylly'' (1913) *''Kerran kesällä'' (1917) *''Kuolleet omenapuut'' (1918) *''Putkinotkon metsäläiset'' (1919) *''Putkinotkon herrastelijat'' (1920) *''Rakastunut rampa eli Sakris Kukkelman, köyhä polseviikki'' *''Sorron lapset'' (1923) *''Punainen mies'' (1925) *''Lintukoto'' (1929) *''Hyvästijättö lintukodolle'', (1934) 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「Joel Lehtonen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
