Antoine Fabre d'Olivet

Japanese: ファーブル･ドリベ（英語表記）Antoine Fabre d’Olivet

1767‐1825
French writer and mystic. He was influential for a time for his philosophical writings that drew on the traditions of esotericism and occultism. He also produced many theatrical works and attempted composition, but he was particularly known for his novels and poems written in Provencal, which made him a forerunner of Félibrige (the Society for the Promotion of the Southern French Language) led by F. Mistral. Works such as Troubadours (1803), which he describes as "13th century Occitan poetry," are worthy of praise. [Iwaya Kunio]

フランスの作家，神秘思想家。秘教(エソテリズム)や隠秘学(オカルティズム)の伝統をひく哲学的著作によって一時影響力をもつ，演劇作品も数多く，作曲の試みもあるが，とくにプロバンス語で書いた小説や詩によって，のちのF.ミストラルらのフェリブリージュFélibrige(南仏語顕揚結社)の先駆をなす。〈13世紀オック語の詩〉と称する《トルバドゥール》(1803)などは評価に値する。【巌谷国士】
