Original title: the Nobel Prize for literature was born 'double yellow eggs'!
At 7 p.m. Beijing time on October 10, 2019, the Swedish Academy of Arts announced that it would award the 2018 Nobel Prize for literature to Olga & middot; Olga tokarczuk awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize for literature to Peter & middot; Peter Handke.
The Nobel Prize for literature was established in 1901 and has a history of 118 years. It has been opened seven times in 1914, 1918, 1935, 1940, 1941, 1942 and 1943. Except that the academicians of the Swedish Academy suspended the Nobel Prize for literature in 1935 because they were unable to reach an agreement in the voting meeting, the suspension in other years was due to the war, namely the first World War and the Second World War.
Affected by the scandal, the 2018 Nobel Prize for literature was suspended. On March 5, 2019, the Nobel Prize Foundation said that the Nobel Prize for literature would be resumed and two winners in 2018 and 2019 would be selected together.
In the hundred year history of the Nobel Prize for literature, it is very rare to postpone the award for one year. The last time it appeared was in 1949, nearly 70 years ago.
