Were both Giuseppe Ungaretti and Aleister Crowley a poet?
Aleister Crowley Aleister Crowley ( ; born Edward Alexander Crowley; 12 October 1875 – 1 December 1947) was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, painter, novelist, and mountaineer. He founded the religion of Thelema, identifying himself as the prophet entrusted with guiding humanity into the Æon of Horus in the early 20th century. A prolific writer, he published widely over the course of his life.
Ego Dominus Tuus Ego Dominus Tuus, Latin for "I am your lord," sometimes translated as "I am your master" is a poem by the Irish poet William Butler Yeats. It was published in the 1918 book "Per Amica Silentia Lunae", where it introduced some of Yeats's essays, and collected with other poems in "The Wild Swans at Coole" (1919). The title is taken from Dante's "La Vita Nuova": the words "ego dominus tuus" are spoken to Dante in a dream by the personification of Love. The two characters of the poem, "Hic" and "Ille", are Latin words meaning "this man" and "that man", respectively. Ezra Pound identified "Ille" with 'Willie', or Yeats: the poem covers many characteristic themes of Yeats, in particular the image of the mask and the concept of the double or "anti-self". The dialogue of "Hic" and "Ille" treats the poetry of Dante, John Keats, and Yeats himself, contrasting the words of each poet with the experience of their lives.
