Literary Posters and Art Prints by Studio Grafiikka
Invictus- is a poem by William Ernest Henley, written in 1875 and published in the year 1888. It was initially published without a title and came to be called "Master of my Fate", "Captain of my Soul", "Clear Grit", "Myself", "De Profundis" and "Song of a Strong Soul", before being named "Invictus", meaning "unconquered". Nelson Mandela is said to have recited the poem to his fellow prisoners while being incarcerated and was highly inspired by its message of stoicism and self mastery. It is a literary example of Victorian Era Stoicism and is considered one of the best pieces of motivational literature in the English language. This poem teaches one to be a better person and face the hardships and challenges of life with courage, determination and inner strength.
