Shaunt Basmajian (30 September 1950 – 25 January 1990) was a Canadian poet and author. Born in Beirut, Lebanon to Armenian parents, Basmajian emigrated to Canada when he was seven years old. He was a founder of the Canadian Poetry Association, co-founder of Old Nun Publications (with Ted Plantos), and was a member of the Parliament Street Library poetry group. The Shaunt Basmajian Chapbook Award, given annually to a Canadian poet, was established in his memory. The contest ran from 1996–2008. In 1986, he was attacked with a knife and robbed while he was driving a taxi. His right lung was punctured when a robber stabbed him. He died one year later when his heart lining collapsed. ==Bibliography== *1982:''Surplus Waste and Other Poems'' *1985:''Poets Who Don't Dance'' 1985 *1988:''Biased Analogies'' 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「Shaunt Basmajian」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
