Jules Laforgue
Franco-Uruguayan poet
Jules Laforgue (16 August 1860 – 20 August 1887) is an innovative Franco-Uruguayan poet, often referred to as a Symbolist poet.
Critics and commentators have also pointed to Impressionism as a direct influence and his poetry has been called "part-symbolist, part-impressionist".
