Creative style
Although Milosz was familiar with several languages ??and spent most of his life abroad, he did not give up writing in Polish. It was he who realized that poetry must be written in his mother tongue to be good. On the other hand, insisting on writing in his mother tongue is also the best way for him to keep in touch with his past.
Mi?osz around 1945 had a very different poetic style. His early works are characterized by symbolism, and due to some events, they have both a pessimistic side and other complexities. After 1945, especially after his exile, he began to pay attention to the ultimate meaning of human beings. Under totalitarian confinement, he broke free from the prison and hoped to find weapons in philosophy, history and culture.
