Editing Aniara (section)

==Title==
In a 1997 Swedish edition of ''Aniara,'' literary scholar [[Johan Wrede]] writes that the [[neologism]] “Aniara” is Harry Martinson's own invention.<ref name="Wrede">{{Cite book |last=Martinson |first=Harry |title=Aniara |date=1997 |publisher=Albert Bonniers}}</ref> Martinson came up with the word years before writing the work while reading astronomer [[Arthur Eddington]], then giving it the meaning as the "name for the space in which the atoms move".<ref name="exp">{{Cite web |last=Bannerhead |first=Tomas |date=22 November 2019 |title=Hur kunde det gå så snett? |url=https://www.expressen.se/kultur/dodsskeppet-varnar-oss-om-och-om-igen/ |website=Expressen}}</ref> Others have submitted additional theories as to the origin of the word. A preface to a 2005 Italian edition claims that the title comes from ancient Greek ἀνιαρός, "sad, despairing",<ref>{{LSJ|a)niaro/s|ἀνιαρός|ref}}.</ref> plus special resonances that the sound "a" had for Martinson.<ref name="italian">Preface to {{Cite book |last=Martinson |first=Harry |title=Aniara.

Martinson himself is said (by [[Tord Hall]], longtime friend) to have been fond of this interpretation.<ref>{{Cite web |date=February 2019 |title="Jag har alltid varit lockad av att gå nära stup" |url=https://fof.se/tidning/2019/2/artikel/jag-har-alltid-varit-lockad-av-att-ga-nara-stup}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Harry Martinsons efterlämnade papper och manuskript |url=http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:alvin:portal:record-10437 |website=Alvin}}</ref>
