100 years since the birth of Wis\u0142awa Szymborska<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wis\u0142awa Szymborska (Maria Wis\u0142awa Anna Szymborska; Bnin, July 2, 1923 \u2013 Krakow, February 1, 2012), Polish poet, essayist and translator, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, is one of the most original and important contemporary Polish writers whose work is characterized by intelligence, deep introspection and imagination.<\/p>\n

She started creating very early, even in her teenage years. She published her first collection of poems, \u201cDlatego \u017cyjemy\u201d (\u201cThat\u2019s why we live\u201d), in 1952.<\/p>\n

Among her most significant works are the collections of poems \u201cWo\u0142anie do Yeti\u201d (Cry of the Yeti, 1957), \u201cS\u00f3l ziemi\u201d (Salt of the Earth, 1962), \u201cWiersze wybrane\u201d (Selected Songs, 1967), \u201cSto pociech\u201d (One Hundred Consolations, 1967), \u201cCzarny pasek\u201d (Black Ribbon, 1976).<\/p>\n

Through her verses, Szymborska explored the paradoxes of human existence, asking questions about the meaning of life, love and art. Deeply introspective, intellectually sharp and very skilled in wordplay and imaginative use of language, Szymborska wrote poetry rich in humor, which makes reading her poems a real pleasure.<\/p>\n

She received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1996, \u201cfor her poetic imagination that illuminates social reality with sarcasm.\u201d Her works have been translated into almost all European languages, Arabic, Hebrew, Japanese and Chinese. Although her poetic oeuvre was not too extensive, the unique poetic expression with which she shrewdly illuminated the essence of human experience made Wis\u0142awa Szymborska\u2019s work leave a permanent mark on the Polish and world literary scene.<\/p>\n
