瑞典诗人托马斯·特朗斯特罗姆被授予2011年诺贝尔文学奖。

Transtroemer is Scandinavia's best-known living poet
The Royal Swedish Academy named him the recipient1 "because, through his condensed, translucent2(透明的) images, he gives us fresh access to reality".

The 80-year-old is the 108th recipient of the prestigious3 prize, given last year to Peruvian Mario Vargas Llosa.

Presented by the Nobel Foundation, the award - only given to living writers - is worth 10 million kronor (£944,246).

A trained psychologist, Transtroemer suffered a stroke in 1990 that affected4 his ability to talk.

'Mystical'

His poems - described by Publishers Weekly as "mystical, versatile5(多才多艺的) and sad" - have been translated into more than 50 languages.

English translations were largely handled by American poet Robert Bly, a personal friend, and Scottish poet Robin6 Fulton.

Fulton, said Transtroemer would be remembered for "his very sharp imagery that translates readily, telling metaphors7 and a sense of surprise".

"You don't feel quite the same after you've read it as you did before," he added.

Fulton first began working with Transtroemer in the early 1970s, and told the BBC: "Some of the Swedish I've learnt was learnt in the process of translating Tomas.

"You have to plunge8 in somewhere. When you're in the mood it's good until someone points out the mistakes you've made."

Tipped as a potential Nobel prize winner for many years, Transtroemer is the eighth European to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in the last 10 years.

He is the first Swede to receive the prize since authors Eyvind Johnson and Harry9 Martinson shared it in 1974.

Born in April 1931 in Stockholm, Transtroemer graduated in psychology10 in 1956 and later worked in an institution for juvenile11 offenders12.

His first collection of poetry, Seventeen Poems, was published when he was 23.

In 1966 he received the Bellman prize, one of many accolades13(赞美,表扬) he has won over his long career.

In 2003 one of his poems was read at the memorial service of Anna Lindh, the murdered Swedish foreign minister.
