Deaths of the Authors

This sequence is very much provisional, with a goodly number of incomplete entries awaiting in the wings and yet others to be fully fashioned. Suggestions for further entries will be very much appreciated, indeed, new entries themselves, with full acknowledgement offered; but subject to the understanding that editorial authority must prevail. Additions to and corrections of existing entries will be gratefully accepted, but facts should not always be permitted to challenge too brutally the exquisite webs of poetic fancy, whatever the spider within.
