Kluge for Kolakowski

The first-ever John W. Kluge Prize for Lifetime Achievement in the Human Sciences has been awarded to Leszek Kolakowski. The award was presented by the Librarian of Congress, Dr James Billington. Professor Kolakowski is a Polish anti-communist philosopher and historian of philosophy. Thoroughly conversant in both the analytical and Continental strains of Western philosophy, Kolakowski is the author of more than 30 books and 400 other writings in four languages: primarily in Polish, but also in French, English and German.
