Peter Rosegger


 

Peter Rosegger (31 July 1843 - 26 June 1918) was an Austrian poet from the province of Styria. He was a farmer's boy and grew up in the forests and fields. Rosegger (or Rossegger) went on to become a most productive poet and author as well as an insightful teacher and visionary. In his later years, he was honoured by officials from various Austrian universities and the city of Graz (the capital of Styria). He almost got awarded the Nobel Prize in 1913 and is (at least among the people from Styria) something like a national hero to this day.
