Mario Orlando Hardy Hamlet Brenno Benedetti Farrugia〔 (; 14 September 1920 – 17 May 2009),〔 known as Mario Benedetti, was an Uruguayan journalist, novelist, and poet as well as being an integral member of the Generación del 45. In spite of publishing more than 80 books and being published in twenty languages he was not well known in the English-speaking world,〔 but in the Spanish-speaking world he was considered one of Latin America's most important writers from the latter half of the 20th-century.〔 ==Early years== Benedetti was born in Paso de los Toros in the department of Tacuarembó to Brenno Benedetti (pharmaceutical and chemical winemaker) and Matilde Farrugia, a family of Italian descent. Mario completed six years of primary school at the Deutsche Schule in Montevideo, where he also learned German, which allowed him later to be the first translator of Kafka in Uruguay. When Nazism was present in the classrooms, he was immediately removed from the school by his father. For two years he studied at Liceo Miranda, but for the rest of his high school years he did not attend an educational institution. In those years he learned shorthand, which was his livelihood for a long time. At age 14 he began working, first as a stenographer and then as a seller, public officer, accountant, journalist, broadcaster and translator. He trained as a journalist with Carlos Quijano, in the weekly March.〔(Fundación Mario Benedetti )〕 Between 1938 and 1941 he lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina. In 1946 he married Luz López Alegre. He was a member of the 'Generation of 45', a Uruguayan intellectual and literary movement: Carlos Maggi, Manuel Flores Mora, Ángel Rama, Emir Rodríguez Monegal, Idea Vilariño, Carlos Real de Azúa, José Pedro Díaz, Amanda Berenguer, Ida Vitale, Líber Falco, Juan Carlos Onetti, among others.〔(Generación del 45: severa en la crítica y brillante en la creación. )〕 He also wrote in the famous weekly Uruguayan newspaper ''Marcha'' from 1945 until it was forcibly closed by the military government in 1973, and was its literary director from 1954. 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「Mario Benedetti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
