Poets are sensitive, ethereal creatures, ineffectual dreamers obsessed with metaphors and finding the right rhythms and rhymes. Theyre generally harmless, right? Not always. On this list, there are killers, crooks, plotters, rakes, a blackmailer, several revolutionaries, heartbreakers, duelists, drunkards, an opium fiend, a serious oddball, and even one fascist. To borrow the words of Lady Caroline Lamb, who played mistress to one of them, these men were mad, bad, and dangerous to know. 人们印象中诗人是机智敏感，超凡脱俗，痴迷修辞和韵律的梦想家。他们通常应该不会惹什么麻烦，对不对？但事实并非如此。以下列出的十位诗人简直无恶不作，他们不是杀人放火，欺诈勒索就是决斗厮杀，策划阴谋，他们还造反，负心，酗酒，吸食鸦片，放荡不羁，行为古怪甚至还有一个法西斯主义者。借其中一人的情妇卡洛琳·兰姆的话来说这真是一群疯狂，恶劣又危险的人。 10.
