Oskar Pastior Prize 2025

Assistant Professor, poet, and translator Dagmara Kraus has been awarded the Oskar Pastior Prize 2025 for her multilingual writing. In her poetry, Prof. Kraus combines German, Polish, French, and English vocabulary and reflects on language barriers and flight. Her works, including “liedvoll, deutschyzno” (2020) and her dissertation “Vom Sichersten … ins Bläueste” (2019), show a close connection to the Romanian-German poet Oskar Pastior.
