Guys, i need help. Some times ago, i was reading some article on Wikipedia about Tolkien. And in this article was part about some literary modernist critic, who was saying that Tolkiens poetry was bad and his connection in his poetry to old english poetry and Beowulf was zero, he was not authentic, his poetry, style, metre, verse etc was not authentic. And this critic was comparing Tolkien or to himself, or to other literary modernist poet writer, who also had connections in his works and interest to Beowulf and old english poetry, and that his modernist works are authentic to anglosaxonic poetry, that his works really has connections to Beowulf and that he is much better at this and in correlation beetwen modernist style and modern time and medieval times and style. But i cannot remember nether the critic or this poet. May be you know? who this people? I was looking for many articles on Wikipedia that connected to Tolkien, about critics of Tolkien, about modernism and Tolkien etc, but found nothing. I would be glad if you would help me. Thanks!
