Nazım Hikmet
Nazım Hikmet (1902-1963) was a renowned Turkish poet, playwright, and novelist, celebrated for his contributions to modern Turkish literature and his revolutionary political views. His works often reflected themes of social justice, love, and the struggles of the working class. Hikmet's innovative use of free verse and his ability to blend personal experience with broader social commentary made him a key figure in 20th-century poetry. Due to his political beliefs, which aligned with communism, he faced imprisonment and exile, and his writings were banned in Turkey for many years. Today, he is revered as a national literary icon and a symbol of resistance against oppression.
