EKElizabeth Kim
Elizabeth Kim was born in Korea. Omma was killed by her brother and father ('honour killing') for the sin of sleeping with an American soldier and producing a mixed-race child, Elizabeth. There is no record of her birth or of her name. Dumped in a horrific orphanage in post-war Seoul, Kim was lucky to be adopted by a fundamentalist American family. But just as her American features doomed her in racist Korea, her Korean features served as a constant reminder that she wasn't good enough for her new all-white environment. Her mother had always told her that life was made up of ten thousand joys as well as ten thousand sorrows.

SLStanis³aw Jerzy Lec
Stanis³aw Jerzy Lec (6 March 1909 – 7 May 1966) (born Baron Stanis³aw Jerzy de Tusch-Letz) was a Polish poet and aphorist of Polish and Jewish noble origin. Often mentioned among the greatest writers of post-WW2 Poland, he was one of the most influential aphorists on the 20th century. Lyrical poetry, sceptical philosophical-moral aphorisms, often with a political subtext. He was born on March 6, 1909 in Lviv (then Lemberg, Austro-Hungarian Empire), the son of the Baron Benon de Tusch-Letz and Adela Safrin. The family moved to Vienna at the onset of First World War, and Lec' early education was received there. After the war the family returned to Lviv-Lemberg to continue his schooling at the Lemberg Evangelical School. In 1927 he matriculated at the Lviv's Jan Kazimir University in jurisprudence and Polish. As a result of his political activities — writing articles for socialist revolutionary periodicals, making speeches in the Technological Institute’s Yellow Hall — Lec had to leave...

Opera sa include: Lumina care arde (1922) Poemele scalvilor asediați (1927) Adevarata apologie a lui Socrate (1933)(o lucrare în proză) Engleză Kostas Varnalis was a Greece writer and poet of the 20th Century.

In 1909, Varnalis was appointed to a teaching post in Greece. He received a scholarship in 1919 for post-graduate studies in Paris, France.

He returned to Greece and acquired the label "leftist" which led to dismissal from his teaching post during the Pangalos dictatorship in 1925....

LSLudwig Schwarz
Ludwig Schwarz *22.8.1925, Dolatz/Banat/Rumänien; + 3.7.1981, Bukarest/Rumänien Am 22. August 1925 in der Banater Gemeinde Dolatz geboren, blieb Ludwig Schwarz die Biografie vieler seiner Landsleute nicht erspart. Kriegs- und Bărăganerfahrungen haben auch sein Leben geprägt. In den 1950ger Jahren erlernte er den Beruf eines Baufachmannes. Im Bauwesen allein verdiente er aber nicht sein tägliches Brot. In einer Schwarz-Retrospektive schreibt der Journalist Luzian Geier in der BANATER POST/München vom 20. September 1995 dazu: „Zum Studium wurde er nicht zugelassen, selbst als Hilfslehrer abgelehnt; als Baumeister arbeitete er über viele Jahre als unqualifizierter Land- und Gelegenheitsarbeiter, war Dorfmusikant und Gemeindeschreiber.“ Die kommunistischen Behörden in Rumänien haben den seit 1956 in Neupetsch/Peciu Nou beheimateten Ludwig Schwarz zeitlebens schikaniert. Eine Anstellung als Redakteur bei der Kronstädter KARPATENRUNDSCHAU durfte auch keine Dauerstelle werden....

ACAdelbert von Chamisso
Adelbert von Chamisso (January 30, 1781 – August 21, 1838) was a German poet and botanist. He was born Louis Charles Adélaïde de Chamissot at the château of Boncourt in Champagne, France, the ancestral seat of his family. Driven out by the French Revolution, his parents settled in Berlin, where in 1796 young Chamisso obtained the post of page-in-waiting to the queen, and in 1798 entered a Prussian infantry regiment as ensign. His family was shortly thereafter permitted to return to France; he remained in Germany and continued his military career. He had little education, but sought distraction from the dull routine of the Prussian military service in assiduous study. In collaboration with Varnhagen von Ense, he founded (1803) the Berliner Musenalmanach, in which his first verses appeared. The enterprise was a failure, and, interrupted by the war, it came to an end in 1806. It brought him, however, to the notice of many of the literary celebrities of the day and established his...

RBRupert Chawner Brooke
Rupert Chawner Brooke (middle name sometimes given as Chaucer)(3 August 1887–23 April 1915) was an English poet known for his idealistic war sonnets written during the First World War (especially The Soldier); however, he never experienced combat at first hand. He was also known for his boyish good looks, which prompted the Irish poet William Butler Yeats to describe him as \"the handsomest young man in England\". English poet Brooke was born at 5 Hillmorton Road in Rugby, Warwickshire, the second of the three sons of William Parker Brooke, a Rugby schoolmaster, and Ruth Mary Brooke, née Cotterill. He attended Hillbrow Prep School before being educated at Rugby School. While travelling in Europe, he prepared a thesis entitled \"John Webster and the Elizabethan Drama\", which won him a scholarship to King\'s College, Cambridge, where he became a member of the Cambridge Apostles, helped found the Marlowe Society drama club and acted in plays including the Cambridge Greek Play.
