How did Hugo Claus influence postwar Flemish poetry through Oostakkerse gedichten?

Hugo Claus significantly influenced postwar Flemish poetry by helping to introduce the movement of Experimentalism to the region.12

His 1955 collection, Oostakkerse gedichten ("Oostakker Poems"), serves as a milestone of this period, characterized by a raw, sensuous, and richly metaphorical style. This approach aligned with the unconstrained lyricism of the Vijftigers ("Fifties Movement") in the Netherlands, marking a departure from traditional forms and establishing a new, experimental trajectory for Flemish verse that was later continued by poets such as Paul Snoek and Hugues Pernath.12
