Jacobsen, Jens Peter

Japanese: ヤコブセン（英語表記）Jacobsen, Jens Peter

Born: April 7, 1847, Tisted, Jutland
[Died] April 30, 1885. Thisted, Jutland. Danish novelist and poet. Born into a wealthy merchant family, his father was a strong sailor and businessman, and his mother was an artistic and dreamy person. He majored in botany at university, and was particularly devoted to collecting and studying algae, winning a gold medal for his graduation thesis. He was also devoted to Darwin's theory of evolution, and translated "On the Origin of Species" and "The Descent of Man." His faith became unstable around that time, and he became interested in Kierkegaard and Feuerbach, and eventually came to consider himself an atheist. Under the influence of Brandes, he turned to literature, and published works in the last years of his life, while battling tuberculosis for 12 years. His short story "Mogens," published in 1872, surprised the world with its fresh impressionistic touch, and he was quickly seen as a leader of the new literary movement. His representative works include Fru Marie Grubbe (1876), Niels Lyhne (80), and Fru Fønss (82).

He is known for his interior, furniture, and lighting designs, and produced original designs from the 1950s to the 1960s. He was a professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts from 1956.

デンマークの小説家，詩人。富裕な商家に生れ，父は剛健な船乗りで事業家，母は芸術家肌の空想家。大学では植物学を専攻，ことに藻類の採集と研究に没頭し，卒業論文では金メダルを受けた。またダーウィンの進化論に傾倒，『種の起原』と『人間の由来』を翻訳。その頃信仰に動揺をきたし，キルケゴール，フォイエルバハらに傾倒，ついに無神論者を自認するにいたった。ブランデスの影響下に文学に転じ，晩年の 12年間結核と戦いながら作品を発表した。 1872年に出した短編『モーンス』 Mogensは清新な印象主義的タッチで世を驚かせ，早くも新文学運動の旗手と目された。代表作『マリー・グルッベ夫人』 Fru Marie Grubbe (1876) ，『ニールス・リューネ』 Niels Lyhne (80) ，『フェーンス夫人』 Fru Fønss (82) 。
