Italian poet, novelist, and film director. After graduating from the University of Bologna in his hometown, he moved to Rome. He made a name for himself as a left-wing poet, with works such as The Bones of Gramsci (1957), and as a novelist with works such as The Life of a Young Man (1955) and The Intense Life (1959). His poetic technique of piling up concrete images attracted the attention of the film world, and after writing many screenplays, including Fellini's Nights of Cabiria, he made his directorial debut with The Beggar (1961). He gradually broke away from the influences of neorealism and documentaries, and created his own unique worlds by breathing modern life into classics, such as The Miracle of St. Michelangelo (1964), Apollo's Inferno (1967), and Medea (1969). After making allegorical works such as "Teorema" (1968), he gradually shifted his interest to works that glorified eroticism, such as "The Canterbury Tales" (1972), but just after completing "Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom" (1975), he was beaten to death by a 19-year-old boy. His films were backed by theoretical interests, and he published an essay titled "Cinema as Poetry" (1966) and a collection of essays titled "Pagan Empiricism" (1972).

イタリアの詩人、小説家、映画監督。生地のボローニャ大学卒業後、ローマに移る。詩集『グラムシの遺骨』(1957)など左翼的な詩人として、また『生命ある若者』(1955)、『激しい生』(1959)などの小説家として名をなした。具体的なイメージを積み重ねる詩的手法は映画界からも注目され、フェリーニ監督の『カビリアの夜』をはじめとする脚本を数多く担当したのち、『アッカトーネ(乞食)』(1961)で監督としてもデビューした。しだいにネオレアリズモやドキュメンタリーの影響を脱し、『奇跡の丘』(1964)、『アポロンの地獄』(1967)、『王女メディア』(1969)など、古典に現代的息吹を吹き込んだ独自の世界をつくりあげた。『テオレマ』(1968)など寓話(ぐうわ)的作品を経て、『カンタベリー物語』(1972)などしだいにエロティシズムをうたいあげる方向へ関心を傾斜させていたが、『ソドムの市』(1975)を完成した直後、19歳の少年に撲殺された。彼の映画は理論的関心に裏づけられており、論文として『ポエジーとしての映画』(1966)、論集に『異教的経験論』(1972)がある。 [出口丈人] 資料 監督作品一覧アッカトーネ(乞食) Accattone(1961) 『米川良夫訳『あることの夢、アッカトーネ』(『現代イタリアの文学9』所収・1971・早川書房)』▽『米川良夫訳『生命ある若者』(『世界文学全集102』所収・1975・講談社)』▽『J・ハリディ著、波多野哲朗訳『パゾリーニとの対話』(1972・晶文社)』 [参照項目] | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
