  • Wystan said:
    Author of (among other works) the novel, "Quo Vadis?" which was made into a 1950s Hollywood blockbuster. In 1905, he had won the Nobel Prize for literature, which is granted not for a specific work, but for the entire body of an author's literary achievement.
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    pennylrichardsca and Wystan, Thanks for the additional information on Henryk Sienkiewicz. We will get his name corrected and add more detail to the record when we update.

    After 34 months his name is still not correct! SIENKIEWICZ!!!
  • The Library of Congress said:
    It looks like we put his full name in a note but didn't provide the [i.e. Henryk Síenkíewicz] in the title. That's fixed now, with apology for the delay. --Helena (LOC)

    His 1915 newsworthiness, per wikipedia: "in 1915, following Prime Minister Herbert Henry Asquith's decision to create a coalition government, became the first member of the Labour Party to become a member of the Cabinet, as President of the Board of Education."
