Where the poet has already been mentioned on this blog, the link is to previous posts. Otherwise, it is to a Wiki article or other google search result.
Brannock's list is in Poul Anderson, Genesis (New York, 2001), Part Two, V, 2, p. 150. The image is an illustration for Homer's Iliad.

Kaor, Paul!
Any similar list of poets I've read would include Dante and his DIVINE COMEDY. I wondered what PA thought of that work? He might have read Dante, because that poet was mentioned in OPERATION CHAOS. And we both know Shakespeare and Kipling were among Anderson's most favorite poets.
