ABOUT 1999 - 200 Sk 150. Výročí narození Pavla Országha Hviezdoslava Proof
Pavol Orszgh Hviezdoslav (2.2.1849 - 8.11.1921) - poet, dramatist and translator, is one of the most important representatives of Slovak literature. His creative work laid the foundations of modern Slovak poetry.
He is the author of broadly conceived cycles of reflective, natural, social and intimate lyrics (Psalms and hymns, Walks in Spring, Walks in Summer, Summer-growth, Dozvuky, Bloody Sonnets) and epic compositions, which depict the life of village people and Slovak gentry (Forester's Wife, Ezo Vlkolinsky, Gabor Vlkolinsky). Biblical epics, presenting Biblical themes in a social and philosophical light, form a distinct group in his writing (Agar, Rachel, Cain, Christmas, The Dream of Solomon). The most important dramatic work is the deeply philosophical tragedy "Herodes and Herodias" , which is regarded as one of the finest examples of Slovak drama. Hviezdoslav's translations of works of world literature are also of great importance.
