English critic, essayist, journalist, poet, and co-founder of The Examiner, a radical intellectual journal advocating for Catholic emancipation, the abolition of the slave trade, and parliamentary reform. Hunt was the first publisher of John Keats, Percy Shelley, Alfred Tennyson, and Robert Browning. In his Examiner, Hunt famously defended Romantic poets against Blackwood Magazine's denunciation of "Cockney poetry." Hunt's most notable works include "Abou Beh Adhem" and "Jenny Kissed Me."
