Salomėja Nėris (born Salomėja Bačinskaitė - Bučienė) (November 17, 1904 – July 7, 1945) was a Lithuanian poet. == Biography == Nėris was born in Kiršai, in the current district of Vilkaviškis. She graduated from the University of Lithuania where she studied Lithuanian and German language and literature. After that she was a teacher in Lazdijai, Kaunas, and Panevėžys. Her first collection of poems, titled ''Anksti rytą'' (In the Early Morning), was published in 1927. In 1928, Nėris graduated from the University and was appointed to teach German language at the ''Seinų žiburys Gymnasium in Lazdijai. Until 1931, Nėris contributed to nationalist and Roman Catholic publications. While studying German in Vienna, in 1929, Nėris met Lithuanian medical student Bronius Zubrickas and became attracted to him. Zubrickas had socialist views and Nėris engaged in socialist activities in order to court him.〔(MOKSLO LIETUVA Nr 2 (314) 2005 m. sausio 20 - vasario 20 d. ) at ml.lms.lt〕 In 1931, Nėris moved to live in Kaunas, where she gave lessons and edited Lithuanian folk tales. In the second collection of Nėris' poetry, ''The Footprints in the Sand'', there is evidence of the onset of a profound spiritual crisis. In the same year, verses containing revolutionary motifs were published in the pro-communist literary journal ''Trečias frontas'' (The Third Front). A promise to work for communism was also published. However, it was not written by her but by the chief ideological editor of ''Trečias frontas'', Kostas Korsakas, and communist activist Valys Drazdauskas (Nėris was more interested in writing poetry than in declarations, politics and theories about art) (see〔(Rasyk.lt: Apie S. NÄries gyvenimo vingius ir jos gyvenimo meiles ) at www.rasyk.lt〕). Salomėja Nėris was awarded the State Literature Prize in 1938. Nėris was a member of the Catholic youth and student organization Ateitis. 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「Salomėja Nėris」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
