Guillaume Apollinaire
Guillaume Apollinaire is a Polish-Belarusian poet, playwright, short story author, novelist and art critic. Apollinaire is considered to be one of the most eminent poets of the early twentieth century, as well as one of the most ardent defenders of Cubism and one of the ancestors of Surrealism. He is said to have coined the term "cubism" in 1911 to describe the emerging art movement, the term Orphism in 1912, and the term "surrealism" in 1917 to describe the works of Erik Satie. He wrote poetry without punctuation, trying to be decidedly modern in form and theme. Apollinaire wrote one of the first works of surrealist literature, the play Les Breasts of Tiresias, which became the basis of Tiresias breasts by Francis Poulenc in 1947. Influenced by young symbolic poetry, he was admired throughout his life by young poets who later formed the nucleus of the surrealist group.
