Was an English poet and
playwright, widely regarded as the
greatest writer in the English
language and the world's pre-
eminent dramatist. He is often
called England's national poet and
the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "The
Bard"). His surviving works consist
of 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long
narrative poems, and several other
poems. His plays have been
translated into every major living
language, and are performed more
often than those of any other
playwright.

Was a Scottish author most
noted for his stories about the
detective Sherlock Holmes,
which are generally considered
a major innovation in the field
of crime fiction, and for the
adventures of Professor
Challenger. He was a prolific
writer whose other works
include science fiction stories,
historical novels, plays and
romances, poetry, and non-
fiction.

Was an English author and poet, born in
Bombay. He is regarded as a major
"innovator in the art of the short story
his children's books are enduring
classics of children's literature; and his
best work speaks to a versatile and
luminous narrative gift. Kipling was one
of the most popular writers in English,
in both prose and verse, in the late 19th
and early 20th centuries. In 1907, he
was awarded the Nobel Prize in
Literature, making him the first English
language writer to receive the prize,
and he remains its youngest-ever
recipient.

Was an English author,
mathematician, Anglican clergyman,
photographer, and inventor. His most
famous writings are Alice's Adventures
in Wonderland and its sequel Through
the Looking-Glass as well as the poems
"The Hunting of the Snark" and
"Jabberwocky", all considered to be
within the genre of literary nonsense.
His facility at word play, logic, and
fantasy has delighted audiences
ranging from children to the literary
elite, and beyond this his work has
become embedded deeply in modern
culture, directly influencing many
artists.
