Jaroslav Seifert

1901–1986

Jaroslav Seifert was a Czech poet, writer, and journalist, awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1984. A founding member of the avant-garde Devětsil group, he evolved from proletarian poetry to a lyrical, personal style that celebrated love, beauty, and the everyday, while subtly resisting political oppression. His work, often censored under communist rule, remains a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
