I think it is possible, maybe even probable that he had to actualy list the poets/writers because literacy rates at the period was not that high, its not like the average person would instantly know any. Also perhaps his own bias to appear educated.
I wouldn’t make this sort of judgement based on a silly questionnaire like this.
Based???
Let’s be honest, he couldn’t name any if he tried. He listed like 8 poets he just wanted to get that feminist cred.
I still respect him though. slightly problematic fav.
