A lot has been written, in recent years, about Mato Kosyk, an emigrant from Lower Lusatia that became a pastor in the U.S. and is regarded as the greatest known Lower Sorbian poet...ever! You can search for him on Wikipedia and even visit the house he built and lived the last years of his life in in Oklahoma: www.flickr.com/photos/koknor/3354733435/There should be a link on that page to see other pictures concerning him. If you're interested in reading some of his poems, thankfully Dr. George Stone translated 10 poems to English and wrote about him, you can download and read the article for free by going: www.ingentaconnect.com/content/maney/sla/2006/00000012/00000001/art00002 |
