Déry (English spelling) Déry Tibor

Hungarian novelist. Born into a wealthy Jewish family. He gained attention with his novel Unfinished Words (1947), which analyzed intellectual groups from a modern perspective. His sequel, Answers (1950-52), deals with the workers' uprisings of the 1930s. As a progressive intellectual, he was involved in political activities, and experienced exile and imprisonment. After World War II, he repeatedly clashed with the dogmatism of the Communist Party, and during the Hungarian Revolution, he served three years in prison for his novella Niki (1956), which criticized the party. He later wrote a novel, The Excommunicator (1965), which imitated Stalin. His writing skills did not diminish even in his later years, and he published the autobiographical work No Judgement (1969) and the novella Imaginative Report on an American Pop Festival (1971), which was in a unique genre.

ハンガリーの小説家。富裕なユダヤ人の家に生まれる。知識人グループを現代的心理で分析した長編『未完の言葉』(1947)により注目された。続編『答え』(1950~52)では、1930年代の労働者蜂起(ほうき)を扱っている。進歩的知識人として政治活動にもかかわり、亡命、投獄を経験。第二次世界大戦後は、再三、共産党の教条主義と対立し、ハンガリー事件の際には、党批判の中編『ニキ』(1956)が原因で、3年の刑に服した。その後、スターリンを模した長編『破門宣告者』(1965)がある。晩年もその筆力は衰えず、自伝的作品『判決なし』(1969)や、特異なジャンルの中編『アメリカのポップフェスティバルについての想像的ルポ』(1971)などを発表した。
