词条 | Leopold, Jan Hendrik |
释义 | Leopold, Jan Hendrik Dutch poet born May 11, 1865, 's Hertogenbosch, Neth. died June 21, 1925, Rotterdam poet whose unique expression and masterly technique set him apart from other heirs to the Dutch literary renaissance of the 1880s. His poetry is often wistful and melancholy in mood, conveying a desolating solitude of spirit that was probably accentuated by his deafness; he himself describes his work as “one long plaint.” He was first influenced by Pieter Cornelis Boutens (Boutens, Pieter Cornelis) and Herman Gorter (Gorter, Herman) but soon developed along his own lines. He made his debut in the periodical De nieuwe gids (“The New Guide”) in 1893 and later collaborated on Albert Verwey's Tweemaandelijks tijdschrift (“Bimonthly Periodical”). His most highly rated work is the epic poem “Cheops” (1915), which describes in rich, musical language the journey of a pharaoh's soul after death through the spiritual regions of the universe and its return, disillusioned, to its burial pyramid. |
