Anacreonian Poetry - Anacreon

Japanese: アナクレオン詩派 - アナクレオンしは
Anacreonian Poetry - Anacreon
An 18th-century German school of poetry. The ancient Greek Anacreonian poetry published in France in 1554 by Henri Étienne (father and son) had a wide influence throughout Europe, but around 1739 a group of young men appeared in Halle, Germany, who translated this poetry into German and at the same time composed poems modelled on it. This group is called the Anacreonian School. As if in reaction to the religious atmosphere of Halle, one of the centers of Pietism, their poetry was based on themes of wine, love and friendship, and sang of the joys of this world. It was literature of a Rococo character, with a sense of light-hearted forms, a yearning for simple and elegant things, and a spirit of delight in playfulness and wit.

Japanese:
18世紀ドイツの一詩派。1554年フランスでアンリ・エティエンヌ(エティエンヌ父子)が出版した古代ギリシアのアナクレオン風の詩はひろくヨーロッパに影響を及ぼしたが,1739年ごろドイツのハレに,この詩をドイツ語に翻訳しつつ,同時にこれにならった詩を作る一群の青年が現れた。このグループをアナクレオン詩派とよぶ。敬虔主義の中心地のひとつであったハレの宗教的雰囲気に反発するように,その詩は,酒や恋や友情をテーマとして,現世の喜びをうたい,軽快な形式に対する感覚,単純で優雅なものへの憧れ,戯れや機知を喜ぶ精神など,ロココ的な性格の文学である。
