Pablo Neruda (1904 - 1973) is widely recognized as one of the greatest poets of all time. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971 “for a poetry that with the action of an elemental force brings alive a continent's destiny and dreams”. A Chilean poet-diplomat, his poetry covers a wide range of poetic forms and topics, from epic poetry, the most popular love poems, the imaginative and influential surrealist poetry, odes and sonnets, to political poetry. Harold Bloom considers him the truest heir of Walt Whitman in South America, praising him not only as a poet of extraordinarily diverse styles, but also of very mixed achievement, ranging from bathos to the high Sublime.
