Max Jacob (12 July 1876 – 5 March 1944) was a French poet, painter, writer, and critic.
Jacob is regarded as an important link between the symbolists and the surrealists, as can be seen in his prose poems and in his paintings, exhibitions of which were held in New York City in 1930 and 1938.
His writings include the novel Saint Matorel (1911), the free verses Le laboratoire central (1921), and La défense de Tartuffe (1919), which expounds his philosophical and religious attitudes.
The famous psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan attributed the quote "The truth is always new" to Jacob. More on Max Jacob
