American poet notable for his satires and as one of the Knickerbocker Group; along with James Fenimore Cooper and Washington Irving. His poetry was popular and widely read but later fell out of favour. It has been studied since the late twentieth century for its homosexual themes and insights into nineteenth-century society.
