Etymology:
From the ancient Greek : ποιέω, poieō : "I make or compose" ; ποιητης, poïêtes : "artisan, creator, maker (also makar), author, poet" > Latin : poēta : "poet, author" > Old French : (1200-1400) poëte or poète > Used (poet) in 14th. century, in classical English language, for all sorts of writers or composers of works of literature. The term makar, which is another older term for poet, is a claque from the Greek.
