Kalle Käsper (born 1952 in Tallinn) is an Estonian writer. Käsper is the husband of Armenian writer Gohar Markosjan-Käsper. Notable works by Käsper include "Buridanid", "Taani prints Hamlet, nuhk" (''Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, a Spy''). He has co-authored the screenplay of "Jüri Rumm", a popular Estonian film (of 1994). His novel "Üksindus on hommikuti hell" (''Loneliness is tender in the morning'') has been translated into Russian ((ロシア語:Oda utrennemu odinočestvu)), was published in the literary journal ''Neva''). Käsper's work "Saksamaa õppetunnid”" (''The Lessons of Germany'') won a yearly prize of the Russian magazine ''Zvezda'', where this translation was published.〔''Kalle Käsperi romaan vene keeles'', Postimees July 7, 2006, available at http://www.postimees.ee/070706/esileht/kultuur/208495.php 〕 In recent years, Käsper has published in Estonian newspapers comments on politics and current affairs, distinguished by criticism towards the developments in post-Soviet Estonia and disapproval of cultural Americanisation. Käsper as a publicist is also supportive of Russia and Russian president Vladimir Putin〔Kalle Käsper ''Mulle meeldib Vladimir Putin'' August 18, 2005 in SL Õhtuleht, available at http://www.sloleht.ee/index.aspx?id=176189&r=20 〕 and has expressed nostalgic attitudes to some aspects of the Soviet period〔Mait Raun ''Eesti mehe soojad sõnad armeenia rahvast ja Nõukogude Liidust'' in Eesti Päevaleht, April 15, 2005〕 – none of which is common in the Estonian public. Käsper (a Russian philologist by education) has also translated into Estonian a number of works by Russian authors. ==Bibliography== * ''Alliksandriine'' (2003) * ''Vennad Luiged'' (2002) * ''Taani prints Hamlet, nuhk'' (2004) 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「Kalle Käsper」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
