Christopher Anstey
Christopher Anstey (31 October 1724 – 3 August 1805) was an English poet who also wrote in Latin. After a period managing his family's estates, he moved permanently to Bath and died after a long public life there. His poem, ''The New Bath Guide'', brought him to fame and began an easy satirical fashion that was influential throughout the second half of the 18th century. Later he wrote ''An Electoral Ball'', another burlesque of Bath society that allowed him to develop and update certain themes in his earlier work. Among his Latin writing were translations and summaries based on both these poems; he was also joint author of one of the earliest Latin translations of Gray's ''Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard'', which went through several editions both in England and abroad.Provided by Wikipedia
