Peter Neagoe (7 November 1881, Odorhei, Austria-Hungary - 28 October 1960, Woodstock, New York) was an American writer and painter, born in Transylvania. ==Personal life== After attending primary and secondary school in Săliște, Sibiu and Blaj, he moved to Bucharest in 1900 where he studied at the Romanian Academy of Fine Arts and was a colleague of Constantin Brâncuși. At the same time, he also took courses in philosophy and law at the University of Bucharest. Between 1901 and 1903 he left the country without parental consent, and after a short stay in Germany emigrated to America, arriving in New York in 1906. He worked at several different jobs while continuing his art studies at the National Academy of Design and the Art Students Association. After World War I he returned to Europe, settling in Paris. There he came into contact with Dadaist and Surrealist painters of the time and was reunited with Brâncuși, to whom he dedicated his book ''The Saint of Montparnasse'' (published posthumously in 1965). In 1933 Neagoe returned to the United States, publishing two novels in the next three years and a volume of stories on topics of Transylvanian and Romanian history. He visited Romania as the guest of the Romanian Writers' Society in April 1937. During World War II he worked at the U.S. Army Intelligence Bureau. His writing output decreased during this time, until he returned to literature with ''A Time to Keep'' published in New York in 1949. His personal friends included James Joyce, Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein. He was married in 1911 to Anna Frankeul, painter. The papers of Neagoe and his wife are at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York. The English Department at Syracuse offered a competitive creative writing award for graduate students in his name.〔(Syracuse University English Graduate Handbook, 2014–2015 ), sec. 3.10d, p. 31.〕 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「Peter Neagoe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
