The concept of the poet-critic has always been a compelling one to me; it''s hard not to admire 19th century French poets like Gautier, writing elegant prose in newspapers on topics the general public was more interested in reading about than it was in reading his poetry. (I''ve never been one to hold the general public''s lack of interest in poetry against it; that''s the way of the world.) The compensation was that being a poet gave one a certain license as a critic to roam among all the arts.
