Post an image with more talent. You can't.

>>25255731lol funny
>>25255729I don't recognise even a single one of these guys.
>>25255784It's a famous photo taken at Faber & Faber (the main UK poetry publisher).Left to right:Louis MacNiece, Ted Hughes, T. S. Eliot (who was editor of F&F), Auden, Spender.MacNiece isn't worth much. Ted Hughes is good. Eliot is Eliot. Auden is OK if you like that sort of thing but obviously uber-faggy. Spender is a semi-fag and not worth much.
>>25255799Auden is exceptional, whether you like him or not, and a much better poet than Hughes. As for Macneice and Spender, you're certainly underrating them.
>>25255729>Sherry, Niles?
>>25255827>auden over hughesAuden wrote verse for businessmen who "chortle" and wrinkly Oxford dons with spectacles, Hughes wrote verse for the living
>>25255729Too easy
>>25257001I can tell by the scribbles that they‘re all garbage
>>25255803This>>25255830And definitely this. This little German man has more talent in his thing in itself than anyone pictured ITT
ted hughes looks like the gigachad character
>>25257005>can't read Cyrillic >can't even recognize Tolstoy Go back
>>25257301>reads trash>highlights trashGo back.
>>25255830EZ win
>>25257308Marx goes hard Lenin wrote some of the most unreadable dross ever and was a despot too
>>25257308
>>25257342Lenin is way more readable than Marx
>>25257416
>>25257411Is that Ngubu on the bottom left?
>>25257342>>25257427they both wrote in such an emotional and feminine way. after u read real books on monetary policy or finance, marxist stuff seems so corny.
>>25257445Wilfried Gnonto, thanks for asking.
>>25257431>extremist sees extremism everywhereIt's a symptom of your psychosis.
>>25257461>I'm a centrist without a mind of my own, I just have whatever ideology the CIA says is the right one to have
>>25257478>anyone who isn't an extremist wacko must be brainwashed by the ciameds now moment
>>25257478[psychosis intensifies]
>>25257482>anyone who doesn't subscribe to namebrand politica is wacko
>>25255803Who's the guy standing?>>25255729Eliot is the only guy from that picture worth reading nowadays. Hughes is ok too, but he's just that, okay.
>>25257005Tolstoy???Goncharov???TurgenevOstrovskyI don't read cyrillic either, but I know some Greek.
>>25257301Though even if you couldn't read cyrillic, you could still recognize Tolstoy and Turgenev because they have very unmistakable faces.
>>25257001Count Lev always looked like he was mildly indignant about something that happened moments before the photos were taken
>>25255737I luvs me some non sequiturs. Dude, this is \lit\ not \sp\. Sheesh.
>>25257552the two who you didn't list are Dmitry Grigorovich and Alexander Druzhinin. Never heard of either one and they don't seem to be important anyhow, just saying it for anyone interested.
>>25259641actually, I just remembered, Dostoevsky mentions "Polinka Saks" in Demons and that was written by Druzhinin. I think Pyotor Stepanovich was making fun of someone for reading it?
>>25257450You haven't read either you sorry dumbfuck
>>25257450Shalom, Rabbi
>>25255729I only recognise ts eliot. Who are the rest
>>25257482Why are you bothering?
>>25257308Kek based
