Poets of other languages

Penny's Poetry Pages focus on poetry written in ''English language|English]]. Occasionally, though, we will print articles on poets who write in another language, either because of their contribution to the art, or because of a connection (such as translation) with a writer in English.

The following list is in no way definitive nor representative of the contributions to world literature of any language group.

Ancient Greek

 * Sappho (c.630-570 BC)

Italian

 * Petrarch (1304-1374)
