Poet Tadeusz Różewicz dies
One of Poland’s best-known post-war poets, Tadeusz Różewicz, died on Thursday. He was 93 years old.
Różewicz was born in 1921 in Radomsko in southern Poland. During the Second World War he was a member of the underground Home Army. After the war he studied the history of art at university.
His debut as a poet came in 1947 with the publication of “Niepokój” (“Anxiety”), which largely focused on his wartime and post-war experience. His last publication was issued in 2008.
