Jaroslaw Iwaszkiewicz Biography | Poet

Jaroslaw Iwaszkiewicz, also known under his literary pseudonym Eleuter (20 February 1894 – 2 March 1980), was a Polish poet, essayist, dramatist and writer. He is mostly recognized for his literary achievements in poetry before World War II, but also criticized as a long-term political opportunist in the communist Poland, actively participating in the slander of Czeslaw Milosz and other expatriates. He was removed from school textbooks by the new liberal regime in the early nineties.
