The Bards, the Words and the Magic

Now that you know of the big secret about me desire to learn poetry, I thought you might as well make use of the names that I have combed from all over the net for most languages which I have studied or plan to study sometime off in the future.

I have collected the names based on my own knowledge (limited, for sure) and upon the fact that these bards seem to quite famous on the Internet. So, if you too wish to improve your memory as well as knowledge of language then you might as well save these names and explore their poetry to your heart's content. I am having a go at the Songs memorization at the moment - Finnish and Japanese ones.

I will repeatedly refine these names, as in, add more to the list and remove a few whose works I don't feel inspiring to the extent as to go on memorizing them. So, watch out for those additions later on and keep an eye out for changes;P

Edit - And, just to be clear about it - I don't care about their political ideologies, scandalous lives ad infinitum - I don't give a damn. I value their words and an opportunity to read them, enjoy the words. For me, it's the excitement of the meaning and the way the Bards convey it, they are the Creatives of the language.
