Jules de Gaultier

Jules de Gaultier was a French philosopher and writer born on May 3, 1858, and known for his work in the fields of philosophy and literary criticism. He is best recognized for his exploration of the concept of the "bouffe" and for coining the term "Délirium," which he used to describe the creative, often irrational aspects of artistic expression. Gaultier's ideas contributed to discussions on the relationship between art, perception, and reality, influencing later thinkers and artists.
