This one honors Zofia Nalkowska.
Wikipedia (visit link) informs us:

"Zofia Nalkowska (Warsaw, Congress Poland, 10 November 1884 – 17 December 1954, Warsaw) was a renowned Polish prose writer, dramatist, and prolific essayist. She served as the executive member of the prestigious Polish Academy of Literature (1933–1939) during the interwar period.

Nalkowska was born into a family of intellectuals dedicated to issues of social justice, and studied at the clandestine Flying University under the Russian partition. Upon Poland's return to independence she became one of the country's most distinguished feminist writers of novels, novellas and stage-plays characterized by socio-realism and psychological depth."
