List of Swiss poets

Add article description


This is a list of Swiss poets, consisting of both authors native to Switzerland, and authors born elsewhere who have influenced Swiss literature through their work. Swiss literature may be split into four parts based on the language of the author, although some authors may write in multiple languages. (Years link to corresponding "[year] in poetry" articles.)

After Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Blaise Cendrars and Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz, the poet Philippe Jaccottet is the fourth Swiss author to be published in the Bibliothèque de la Pléiade.[1]
