Naim Frashëri (25 May 1846 – 20 October 1900) was an Albanian poet and writer. He was one of the most prominent figures of the Albanian National Awakening ((アルバニア語:Rilindja Kombëtare)) of the 19th century, together with his two brothers Sami and Abdyl. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Albania. He authored 22 works. ==Early life and career== He was one of eight children of Halid Bey (1797–1859) and Emine Imrahor (1814-1861), born in the mountainous village of Frashër in the Sanjak of Delvina, Ottoman Empire (now southern Albania). The family was of Aromanian descent.〔 〕 He spent his childhood in the village of Frashër, where he most likely began learning Turkish, Persian and Arabic, and went to the Bektashi tekke. After the deaths of their parents, the oldest, Abdyl (b. 1839), became the family head at the age of 22.〔 Abdyl was a merchant.〔 In 1865, the family moved to Ioannina (Sanjak of Ioannina).〔 The younger brothers, Naim and Sami, attended the Zosimaia School.〔 As he hailed from a family with long connections to the Bektashi Sufi order, Naim became an Ottoman official in Sarandë, Berat, and Ioannina. In 1882, Frashëri went to Istanbul and started his service in Ottoman culture ministry. Naim took part in the National Renaissance of Albania, and often had to sign his writings using his initials, as otherwise he would have placed himself in danger working in an official Ottoman position. His works had to be smuggled into Albania. His earliest writings were poetry. The very first pieces Frashëri wrote were in Persian. In all, he authored twenty-two major works: four in Turkish, one in Persian, two in Greek and fifteen in Albanian. His early patriotic poems and highly popular lyric poetry were strongly influenced by Persian literature, and later also French poetry. He also translated several fables of Jean de la Fontaine, Homer's ''Iliad'', and wrote articles on didactics and Islamic practice. Naim's poem ''Herds and Tillage'' depicts the activities of the shepherd and the tiller, alongside his personal reflections on the beauty of Albanian landscapes and expressions of longing for his homeland. The epic poem ''Skanderbeg's Story'' retells the life of the Albanian national hero George Kastrioti Skanderbeg intertwined with imaginary episodes. Frashëri died in Kızıltoprak, Kadıköy, a neighborhood of Istanbul, in present-day Turkey. 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「Naim Frashëri」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
