Here it is. It was begun without a thought of anybody else reading it, But, what with my later history and all that has been said and written about me, the situation has changed. These entries provide the only true 'profile' that can be drawn. That is why, during recent years, I have reckoned with the possibility of publication, though I have continued to write for myself, not for the public. If you find them worth publishing, you have my permission to do so - as a sort of 'White Book' concerning my negotiations with myself - and with God.' [Taken from a Note at the beginning of the book] ***'Dag Hammarskjöld 29 Jul 1905 - 18 Sep 1961) was a Swedish economist and diplomat who served as the second Secretary-General of the United Nations. Hammarskjöld still remains the youngest person to have held the post, being only 47 years old when he was appointed in 1953. His second term was cut short when he died in the crash of his DC-6 airplane in Northern Rhodesia while en route to cease-fire negotiations during the Congo Crisis. He is the only person to be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize posthumously.' ***'Vägmärken (Markings, or more literally Waymarks), published in 1963, is the only book by former UN secretary general, Dag Hammarskjöld. The journal was discovered after his death, with a covering letter to his literary executor. After the original Swedish version was published in 1963, the English translation came out in 1964. The translation was done by noted Swedish scholar Leif Sjöberg, and was refined by the poet W. H. Auden, who also wrote a foreword. This brought the book immediate literary notice, and even a front-page rave in The New York Times Book Review. It is highly regarded as a classic of contemporary spiritual literature.

He was one of the "Children of the '60s," a new wave of iconic Soviet intellectuals led by the Khrushchev Thaw. Voznesensky was considered "one of the most daring writers of the Soviet era" but his style often led to regular criticism from his contemporaries and he was once threatened with expulsion by Nikita Khrushchev. He performed poetry readings in front of sold-out stadiums around the world, and was much admired for his skilled delivery. Some of his poetry was translated into English by W. H. Auden. Voznesensky's long-serving mentor and muse was Boris Pasternak, the Nobel Laureate and the author of Doctor Zhivago. Before his death, he was both critically and popularly proclaimed "a living classic", and "an icon of Soviet intellectuals"'.

" A sardonic and brilliant comedy around the theme that men profess peace and practise war. The action takes place partly in Olympus where Napoleon and St. Francis are disputing whether mankind really wants peace, and partly in the little imaginary state of Dunkelstein, which the celestial disputants select as a proving ground for their theories." This play was presented by the the Federal Theatre Project in Cincinnati in 1937 and 1938 in New York. Plays, Drama, the Stage, War, Nazis. 020207A.
