John Donne angol költő, a metafizikus költészet legkiemelkedőbb egyénisége. Főként verses szatírákat, leveleket, elégiákat és alkalmi verseket írt. Műveire jellemző mind a magas intellektualitás, mind az érzéki szenvedélyes, a vallásos háttér és epikus műveire a meglepő fordulatok. Költeményeiben gyakoriak az élő metaforák. Wikipedia
