Cyprian Kamil Norwid was one of Poland's most original
minds of the 19th century: poet, dramatist, sculptor, painter, and engraver.
Ignored by critics and publishers. His works were rediscovered in this
century and have influenced Polish writers. His style, precursory of 20th
century poetry, is characterized by great beauty and lucidity. The content
is philosophical and ironic. His collections of poems are: Vademecum, Quidam,
dramas: The Actor The Ring of a Great Lady, philosophical essays: Black
Flowers, White Flowers.
