There are actually three English poets who wrote literary essays. The first in this category was Dr. Samuel Johnson, simply called 'The Dictionary Johnson". He wrote many of his poems in The Gentleman's Magazine, of which the most famous was 'London' the theme being the corruption of a city. In this magazine and in The Rambler which he found later, his faculties as an essayist and literary critic gained momentum which culminated in his monumental work The Lives Of The Poets, which assessed the lives and works of fifty two poets. The second personage is Matthew Arnold, the famous son of the famous father Dr.Thomas Arnold, the Rugby Public School headmaster. The most famous among his poems are Rugby Chapel, The Forsaken Merman, Thyrsis, Sohrab and Rustum and The Scholar Gypsy. During the later years we see him as a literary critic, the first major work being Essays in Criticism, which contained a Study of Poetry and evaluation of the works of Milton, Gray, Keats, Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley and Tolstoy. Culture and Anarchy, Literature and Dogma and Discources followed. The third was Alexander Pope, who though not considered as a literary critic and essayist, was a born literary critic of such a sharp acerbic nature that he wrote his essays of criticism in the poetical form. Many of his famous poems are nothing but pure literary essays in which rather than mentioning the actual names, he prefered to leave the exact number of dashes, which in due cource were duly filled up by his contemporaries.
