Nikolai Alekseevich Klyuev (ロシア語:Николай Алексеевич Клюев) (occasionally transliterated from the Cyrillic alphabet as Kliuev, Kluev, Klyuyev, or Kluyev) (October 10, 1884 - between October 23 and 25, 1937), was a notable Russian poet. He was influenced by the symbolist movement, intense nationalism, and a love of Russian folklore. Born in the village of Koshtugi in Olonets Governorate (now Vologda Oblast) near the town of Vytegra, Kluyev rose to prominence in the early twentieth century as the leader of the so-called "peasant poets". Kluyev was a close friend and mentor of Sergei Yesenin. Arrested in 1933 for contradicting Soviet ideology, he was shot in 1937 and rehabilitated posthumously in 1957. == Personal life == Klyuev was homosexual and had love affairs in Vytegra in the immediate post-revolutionary years, and before settling in St Petersburg in the 1920s. Nevertheless, by the 1920s the evidence of active homosexual relationships become more evident in the account of his life, as well as his poetry. In 1928 he met Anatolii Kravchenko, a young artist. The two lived as companions in Leningrad until Kravchenko's marriage in 1933. Homo-eroticism can be found in Klyuev's poetry from as early as the late 1910s. By the 1930s a more romanticised form of homosexual love is found addressed in the poems to Kravchenko. However, documentary evidence remains scarce; as some suggest, one of the reasons is that scholars in Russia working on archival material have tended to treat issues of sexuality with some caution ; and homosexuality remains a taboo subject for Russian readers and students.〔Michael Makin, ''Nikolai Klyuev: Time and Text, Place and Poet'', Northwestern University Press, 2009〕 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「Nikolai Klyuev」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
