Oskar Loerke
Oskar Loerke (13 March 1884, Jungen – 24 February 1941, Berlin) was a German poet, prose writer, literary critic and essayist. Loerke was a prominent figure in Expressionism and magic realism in Germany.Loerke paved the way for nature poetry with his formally strict poems characterized by intense imagery, musicality and mythical traits. His works made a significant moral and aesthetic contribution not only to German literature but also to world literature. Turning to ancient cultural traditions, in particular, to magic as a system of perception of the world, Loerke developed his own special image of the world and his own artistic language, which can be considered as a dialogue between the artist and the era.
