On the 6th 19: 00 Beijing time, the Academy of Sciences of the Royal Swedish Academy announced that the Nobel Prize in Literature of 20 1 1 was awarded to the 80-year-old Swedish poet Tomas Transtromer. The judging committee of the literary prize thinks that Lanster Lemmer's works arouse a sense of picture, and are "concise and transparent", which urges readers to form a "new understanding" of reality.
Lanster Lemmer is the eighth Swede to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, and the first Swede to win this honor since 1974. According to the Committee, "most of Lanster Lemmer's poems have a characteristic, which is characterized by conciseness, concreteness and bitter metaphors ... In his recent poems, the style of Te Lanster Lemmer has changed, with shorter length and higher conciseness". In addition to the extensive use of metaphors, his works are "full of images, like sketching daily life and nature with simple graphics".
Peter Englender, Permanent Secretary of Literature at the Swedish Academy, said that the works of Te Lanster Lemmer involved "death, history and memory". These elements "look at us and make us important, because human beings are a kind of cage, and all these elements come together ... so you will never feel small when you read Lanster Lemmer's poems".
Lanster Lemmer has been nominated for Nobel Prize in Literature for many times and has always been a favourite. 1992 Nobel Prize in Literature winner Walcott once said: "The Swedish Academy of Literature Prize should not hesitate to award Nobel Prize in Literature to Te Lanster Lemmer, even though he is Swedish."
Lanster Lemmer will receive a prize of 6,543,800,000 Swedish kronor (about 6,543,800 US dollars) on June 54.38+February 65.438+00.

Pastoral
I inherited a black forest that I seldom went to. But one day, it was time for the dead and the living to switch places. /The forest is alive. /We are not hopeless. Despite the efforts of many policemen, the most difficult case is still pending. /In a corner of our life, there is also an unresolved love. I inherited a black forest, but today I walked into another one: a bright forest. /All the living people are singing, shaking their heads and crawling! /Spring has arrived. The air is thick. /I have a diploma from a forgotten university. I am as clean as a cucumber, like a shirt on a clothesline.
In fact, Thomas has only published 163 poems so far. "But just 163 poems is enough to make Te Lanster Le Mo among the top great poets in contemporary Europe. His poems are not only short, but also very slow. " Wu Di, director of the Institute of World Literature and Comparative Literature of Zhejiang University, said that it is precisely because of the great emphasis on the accuracy of words that Lanster Lemmer publishes a collection of poems every four to five years, and each collection of poems generally does not exceed 20, with an average of two or three poems written a year.
"After understanding his thoughts, read aloud, understand his sense of voice and rhythm, and then express it in your own language." Wu Di, together with his teachers and classmates, edited Thomas' poems in 1980s and 1990s. He said that in order to express the metaphorical ideas in Lanster Lemmer's poems in translation, he often read aloud.
For example, Li Li, a Chinese translator of The Complete Works of Tomas Transtromer, thinks that Lanster Le Mo's poems are a bit like Rainbow Wei in China. "But he has an intuitive feeling about the post-industrial society. The artistic conception of' Yin Gong Shan is more secluded' written by Wang Wei is also found in Lanster Le Mo's poems, but he wrote' The sound of helicopters makes the earth quiet', which is incomparable to the former. "
