Kazimierz Wierzyński
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kazimierz Wierzyński (1894–1969) was a Polish poet and journalist. Wierzyński was a cofounder with Julian Tuwim of the Skamander group of experimental poets. His Olympic Laurel (1927) idealizes the grace and fitness of athletes, and his other early poems also celebrate the joy of living. His later works are more serious and socially conscious. The Bitter Crop (1933) includes poems about the United States. His Forgotten Battlefield (1944) contains narratives of World War II.
