<p>203.221.78.248: </p> <hr /> <div>Which of the 12thC authors I know of (in english translations without meter) actually get called poets - [[Chretien_De_Troyes]], [[Marie_de_France]], (are lais told in poetry?, must read some soon), [[Wace]] (the last translation i tried to read was so bad, that I hope the original was poetry).<br /> When does someone stop being a poet and become just an author. hmm<br /> <br /> [[User:Tiff|Tiff]]<br /> <br /> Both wrote primarily poetry as far as I know, so I'll add them in. As to when a poet becomes a poet, for the sake of this list as long as they've written a number of pieces of notable poetry. I'd have trouble justifying Queen Elizabeth as a poet (although she wrote a few poems). Shakespeare on the other hand qualifies because although he is best known for his plays his sonnets are a significant portion of his work.</div>
