Shmuel Yosef Agnon ((ヘブライ語:שמואל יוסף עגנון)) (July 17, 1888 – February 17, 1970) 〔Laor, Dan, Agnon's Life, Biography, Hebrew, Tel Aviv, Schocken, 1998; Falk, Avner, Agnon and Psychoanalysis. Iton 77, No. 156, pp. 28-39, 1993 (). Also see Arnold Band, "Shai Agnon by Dan Laor", AJS Review, Vol. 35 (2011), pp. 206—208. Band says that Agnon invented the commonly cited date July 17, 1888 in the 1920s.〕 was a Nobel Prize laureate writer and was one of the central figures of modern Hebrew fiction. In Hebrew, he is known by the acronym Shai Agnon (ש"י עגנון). In English, his works are published under the name S. Y. Agnon. Agnon was born in Galicia, Austro-Hungarian Empire (today Ukraine). He later immigrated to Mandatory Palestine, and died in Jerusalem, Israel. His works deal with the conflict between the traditional Jewish life and language and the modern world. They also attempt to recapture the fading traditions of the European ''shtetl'' (village). In a wider context, he also contributed to broadening the characteristic conception of the narrator's role in literature. Agnon shared the Nobel Prize with the poet Nelly Sachs in 1966. ==Biography== Agnon was born ''Shmuel Yosef Halevi Czaczkes'' in Buczacz (Polish spelling, pronounced ''Buchach'') or Butschatsch (German spelling), Galicia (then within the Austro-Hungarian Empire), now Buchach, Ukraine. Officially, his date of birth on the Hebrew calendar was 18 Av 5648 (July 26), but he always said his birthday was on the Jewish fast day of Tisha B'Av, the Ninth of Av. His father, Shalom Mordechai Halevy, was ordained as a rabbi, but worked in the fur trade, and had many connections among the Hasidim. His mother's side had ties to the Mitnagdim. He did not attend school and was schooled by his parents.〔(Agnon bio ).〕 In addition to studying Jewish texts, Agnon studied writings of the Haskalah, and was also tutored in German. At the age of eight, he began to write in Hebrew and Yiddish. At the age of 15, he published his first poem – a Yiddish poem about the Kabbalist Joseph della Reina. He continued to write poems and stories in Hebrew and Yiddish, which were published in Galicia. 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「Shmuel Yosef Agnon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
