Copies of books by Canadian author Anne Carson are on display at the Swedish Academy in Stockholm, Sweden, after a press conference on October 8, 2026 to announce her as the winner of the 2026 Nobel Prize in Literature. The Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Canadian poet Anne Carson, an essayist and classicist who brings a modern twist to mysticism and antiquity in her writings about love, desire and despair. The 76-year-old was honoured "for her bold and inventive oeuvre that, in playful dialogue with the classical tradition, has created new forms for contemporary literature," the Swedish Academy said.

Secretary of the Democratic Party (PD) Elly Schlein holds a sign reading "With Meloni, gasoline at 3 euros" in the Chamber of Deputies, Italy's lower house of parliament, during a session for a vote that will decide on a final approval of a new electoral reform, in Rome on October 8, 2026. Italy's parliament votes on a reform of the country's electoral law that opposition parties say the prime minister's hard-right government has designed to boost its chances of re-election next year. The proposal would introduce a fully proportional system that guarantees a parliamentary majority to any alliance winning more than 42 percent of the vote. (Photo by Tiziana FABI / AFP)
