| Summary |
"De mannen van '80 aan het woord" by E. D'Oliveira is a historical account that examines the literary principles and influences of the "Nieuwe Gids" school, likely written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the thoughts and contributions of notable authors from the 1880s, exploring their positions as cultural leaders and the roles they played within society through their art and writings. The opening of the text introduces D'Oliveira's intent to reveal the intellectual and artistic connections among these influential writers, particularly highlighting Lodewijk van Deyssel and Willem Kloos. It describes D'Oliveira's first encounters with Van Deyssel, who defies initial expectations with his warm and approachable demeanor, highlighting the complexity of the literary figures of that era. In these initial dialogues, themes of artistic integrity, creative struggle, and the relationship between the artist and society are established, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of how these authors viewed their crafts in relation to the world around them.
