Kloos, Willem Johan Theodor
Born: May 6, 1859 in Amsterdam
[died] March 31, 1938. The Hague. Dutch poet and critic. In the 1880s, when the trend towards individualism that swept across Europe awakened the Dutch literary world, he was at the forefront of young poets. He founded the group "Writers of the 1880s" (1882), proclaimed "individual expression of individual feelings," and founded the journal De Nieuwe Gids (1885-1943). He served as editor-in-chief until his death and played a leading role as a critic. Many of his poems were in sonnet form, and Het Boek van Kind en God (1888) is his most famous. Other works include Sappho (1881) and Okeanos (1882-1984).
