In 219, the Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded twice because the Swedish Academy, an award-winning institution in Nobel Prize in Literature, was involved in a major scandal at the end of 217.

Earlier, it was reported in The Guardian that with the further escalation of the Swedish Academy's involvement in the sexual assault scandal, the Swedish Academy initiated a discussion on whether to cancel the award of this year's Nobel Prize in Literature at its weekly meeting on April 26th. Per westerberg, one of the academicians, said in an interview with the Guardian on 27th: "At the regular meeting next week, we may have a statement on whether there will be awards this year. If Nobel Prize in Literature is retained until next year, two Nobel Prize in Literature will be awarded together in October 219.

The King of Sweden presented the award to the 217 Nobel Prize in Literature winner kazuo ishiguro. The Swedish Academy recently shocked the world because of its involvement in sexual scandals and corruption. Five of the 18 members withdrew because of dissatisfaction with the handling of sexual assault by the Academy, and the other two members also withdrew for other reasons. Now, there are only 11 members left.

Since the establishment of Nobel Prize in Literature in 191, the Swedish Academy has suspended the award for seven times, namely in 1914, 1918, 1935, 194 and 1941-1943. The award was postponed to the second year six times in history, each time because the Nobel Prize in Literature Selection Committee thought that the writers nominated in that year did not meet the standards set in the Nobel will.

the origin of the nobel prize: Alfred nobel was born in Sweden on October 21st, 1833. He was interested in literature, chemistry, physics and other aspects since he was a child, and even embarked on the road of becoming a chemist. In its lifetime, * * * won 355 patents, and became famous for inventing nitroglycerin explosives.

However, Nobel never married and had no children. Before his death, his own brother died earlier. In 1895, 62-year-old Nobel wrote in his will, "Please turn my property into a fund and use the interest of this fund as a bonus every year to reward those who made outstanding contributions to mankind in the previous year." This led to the Nobel Prize, which continues to this day.
