Is there any library, preferably in python but at least open source, that can summarize and or simplify natural-language text?

Not python but MEAD will do text summarization (it's in Perl). Usually what comes out is comprehensible, if not always particularly fluent sounding. Also check out summarization.com for a lot of good information on the text summarization task.
