Writers Hugo Claus was a universal artist: he wrote poetry and novels, painted and made films. The character of his work is particularly diverse. He combined the banal and the burlesque with tragedy. Often classical themes return: love for the mother, hatred of the father, Roman Catholicism and Flanders during and after the war. His most famous work is Het Verdriet van België (The Sorrow of Belgium, 1983), an epic tale of Flanders under Nazi occupation. Of great importance to Claus was his encounter with modernism and, especially, with surrealism after the Second World War.

Paul van Ostaijen (1896 -1928) is the most influential poet Flanders has ever produced. Every avant-garde movement since the interwar years has drawn inspiration from his work, and yet at the same time he has developed into the most enduringly popular modern Flemish poet.

Much more frequently read, however, are the poems that van Ostaijen wrote after his Berlin period. ‘ Marc greets things in the morning’, ‘ Bersaglieri Song’ and ‘ Recitative’ are among the very best-known poems in Dutch-language literature.
