「展览预告」蓝色对话——阿多尼斯绘画作品展

阿里·艾哈迈德·赛义德·伊斯比尔（Ali Ahmad Said Esber）于1930年出生于叙利亚的一个农村，对于他的读者来说，更熟悉的名字是阿多尼斯。从大马士革大学获得哲学学位后，他继续在贝鲁特的圣约瑟夫大学攻读阿拉伯文学的博士学位。

阿多尼斯撰写了超过50本诗集、文学批评、散文以及作为其母语的阿拉伯语译作。阿多尼斯被公认为阿拉伯世界最重要的诗人以及文学理论家，同时也是其他语言或语境中最为重要的当代诗人和思想者之一。他对于阿拉伯诗歌的影响力，可与庞德或艾略特之于英国诗歌媲美，或者说两人相加的影响力，不同的是，他的诗歌中体现了他对于社会激烈而世俗的批判。

阿多尼斯获得过多个大奖，包括希克梅特奖（土耳其）、全国诗歌奖（黎巴嫩）、金花环奖（马其顿）、诺尼诺国际文学奖（意大利）、让·马里奥外国文学奖（法国）、比昂松奖（挪威），歌德奖（德国）、笔会/纳博科夫文学奖（美国）、金藏羚羊国际诗歌奖（中国）等等。1997年，法国政府授予阿多尼斯文学艺术骑士勋章。

Ali Ahmad Said Esber, known to readers as Adonis, was born in a rural village in north Syria in 1930. He graduated with a degree in philosophy from Damascus University and went on to earn a doctoral degree in Arabic literature from St. Joseph University in Beirut.

Adonis has written more than fifty books of poetry, criticism, essays, and translation in his native Arabic. He is recognized as one of the most important poets and theorists of literature in the Arab world, and one of the most important contemporary poets and thinkers in

any language or context. His influence on Arabic poetry can be

compared with that of Pound or Eliot on poetry in English, combined, 

however, with a radical and secular critique of his society. 

Adonis’s many awards include the Nazim Hikmet Prize (Turkey), the National Poetry Prize (Lebanon), the Golden Wreath Award (Macedonia), Nonino Prize (Italy), Prix de Poésie Jean Malrieu étranger (France), the Bjornson Prize (Norway), the Goethe Prize (German), PEN/Nabokov Award (United States), the Golden Tibetan Antelope Award (China) and many others. In 1997 the French government named Adonis Commandeur de I’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.
