Marianne Evelyn Faithfull (born 29 December 1946) is an English singer, songwriter and actress, whose career has spanned six decades. Her early work in pop and rock music in the 1960s was overshadowed by her struggle with drug abuse in the 1970s. During the first two-thirds of that decade, she produced only two little-noticed studio albums. After a long commercial absence, she returned late in 1979 with the highly acclaimed album ''Broken English''. Faithfull's subsequent solo work, often critically acclaimed, has at times been overshadowed by her personal history. From 1966 to 1970, she had a highly publicised romantic relationship with the Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger. She co-wrote "Sister Morphine", which is featured on the Rolling Stones' ''Sticky Fingers'' album, and had an early hit with the Jagger/Richards composition "As Tears Go By." == Early life and links to nobility == Faithfull was born in Hampstead, London. Her half-brother is Simon Faithfull. Her father, Major Robert Glynn Faithfull, was a British Army officer and professor of Italian Literature at Bedford College of London University. Her mother was styled as Eva von Sacher-Masoch, Baroness Erisso and was originally from Vienna. The family of Sacher-Masoch had secretly opposed the Nazi regime in Vienna. Glynn Faithfull's work as an Intelligence Officer for the British Army brought him into contact with the family, and he thus met Eva.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Featured Articles )〕 Faithfull's maternal grandfather had aristocratic roots, in the Habsburg Dynasty, while Faithfull's maternal grandmother was Jewish.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Marianne keeps the Faith )〕 Erisso was a ballerina for the Max Reinhardt Company during her early years, and danced in productions of works by the German theatrical duo Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill.〔Faithfull, Marianne: ''Memories, Dreams and Reflections'', Fourth Estate (1 October 2007) ISBN 0-00-724580-7〕 Faithfull's maternal great great uncle was Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, the 19th century Austrian nobleman whose erotic novel, ''Venus in Furs'', spawned the word "masochism". In regard to her roots in the Austrian nobility, Faithfull commented in March 2007 prior to beginning the European leg of her tour, "I'm even going to Budapest, which is nice because I'm half English and half Austro-Hungarian. I've inherited the title Baroness Sacher-Masoch—it comes from one of my great great uncles who gave his name to masochism." She later discovered on the British television series ''Who Do You Think You Are?'' that the title was in fact Ritter von Sacher-Masoch, the relative corresponding English title being that of Baronet - an inherited knighthood - rather than a higher ranking Baron. The family lived in Ormskirk, Lancashire, while her father completed a doctorate at Liverpool University.〔 She spent some of her early life at the commune formed by Dr. John Norman Glaister, where her father also lived and participated at Braziers Park, Oxfordshire. Her parents divorced when she was six years old,〔 after which she moved with her mother to Milman Road in Reading, Berkshire. Her primary school was in Brixton, London. Living in reduced circumstances, Faithfull's girlhood was marred by bouts with tuberculosis and her status as a charitably subsidized pupil at St Joseph's Convent School, where she was, for a time, a weekly boarder. While at St. Joseph's, she was also a member of the Progress Theatre's student group. 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「Marianne Faithfull」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
