Synopsis


Occupied City is Flemish avant-garde poet Paul van Ostaijen s most important work. It is also one of the key works of the Dadaist movement.

First published in 1921 as a work of rhythmical typography , it is primarily about the German Occupation of Antwerp during the First World War. But it is also a love-song to the modern city, and a declaration of war on post-1918 Europe.

Designed and illustrated by the Flemish artist Oskar Jespers, this epic poem was originally advertised as, a book devoid of Biblical beauty / a book for royalists and republicans / for doctors and illiterates / a book that lists every important song of the last ten years / in short: as indispensable as a cookbook / What every girl should know.'
