She has herself identified the etymology of words as the starting point for all her work.\u201dAmong Carson\u2019s\u00a0best-known works are\u00a0her 1986 debut &#8220;Eros the Bittersweet&#8221;, a look at the pleasure and pain of desire in ancient Greek literature; her\u00a01998 work, often heralded as her greatest, &#8220;Autobiography of Red: A Novel in Verse&#8221;, a queer coming-of-age story that reworks a Greek poem about Heracles; &#8220;The Beauty of the Husband: A Fictional Essay in 29 Tangos&#8221; (2001);\u00a0and &#8220;Norma Jeane Baker of Troy&#8221; (2019), which compares Marilyn Monroe and Helen of Troy.\u00a0Her most recent work is &#8220;Wrong Norma&#8221;, which was published in 2024.By winning the Nobel Prize, Carson becomes only the 19th woman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, with recent winners including Han Kang in 2024, Annie Ernaux in 2022 and Louis Gl\u00fcck in 2020.\u00a0As of today, the literature prize has been awarded by the Nobel committee of the Swedish Academy 119 times to a total of 123 winners (four literature prizes have been shared between multiple laureates).Last year&#8217;s prize was won by postmodern Hungarian author L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Krasznahorkai\u00a0\u201cfor his compelling and visionary oeuvre that, in the midst of apocalyptic terror, reaffirms the power of art.\u201d Susan Sontag previously described the author as \u201cthe contemporary Hungarian master of apocalypse.\u201d\u00a0The literature prize is the fourth to be announced this week, following the 2026 Nobels in medecine, physics and chemistry. \u00a0Each prize this year comes with\u00a012 million Swedish kronor (\u20ac1.07 million). The winners also receive an 18-carat gold medal and a diploma.\u00a0\u00a0The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize will be announced on Friday and the final prize, the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences, is to be announced on Monday.\u00a0\u00a0Nobel Prize award ceremonies are held on 10 December, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel\u2019s death in 1896.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/10\/08\/canadian-poet-anne-carson-wins-2026-nobel-prize-in-literature&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/94\/40\/54\/1200x675_cmsv2_e69b4891-8d49-5ed4-aa64-5bfe041c2f84-9944054.jpg&#8221;] Europe News Ex-prince Andrew warrants ruled &#8216;unlawful&#8217; as police probe continues Sport Tsunoda Claims World Gold as Murao Retains His Title in Baku Economy Spain: taxes account for over 53% of labour costs, study finds Europe News Pro-Russian hacker group targets Italian Foreign Ministry website Europe News Ex-prince Andrew warrants ruled &#8216;unlawful&#8217; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2186138","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2186138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2186138"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2186138\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2186138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2186138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2186138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
