Wisława Szymborska

1923–2012

View full profile →

Wisława Szymborska was a Polish poet, essayist, and translator, awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1996 for her 'ironic precision' that allows historical and biological contexts to be brought to light in fragments of human reality. Her work is characterized by a seemingly simple, accessible language that belies a profound, often melancholic, contemplation of existence, human nature, and the universe.
