John Payne

    John Payne was een Engelse dichter en vertaler, bekend om zijn invloedrijke vertalingen van klassieke werken zoals De Decamerone, Duizend-en-één Nacht en de Diwan van Hafez. Zijn latere betrokkenheid bij de publicatie van limited editions en de Villon Society benadrukt zijn toewijding aan de literaire kunst. Payne beschouwde Hafez, Dante en Shakespeare als de drie grootste dichters ter wereld, wat zijn diepe bewondering voor de literaire traditie weerspiegelt.
