Lionel Pigot Johnson (15 March 1867 – 4 October 1902) was an English poet, essayist and critic. He was born at Broadstairs, and educated at Winchester College and New College, Oxford, graduating in 1890. He became a Catholic convert in 1891. He lived a solitary life in London, struggling with alcoholism and his repressed homosexuality. He died of a stroke after a fall in the street, though it was said to be a fall from a barstool〔 in the ''Green Dragon'' in Fleet Street. During his lifetime were published his ''The Art of Thomas Hardy'' (1894), ''Poems'' (1895), ''Ireland and Other Poems'' (1897). He was one of the Rhymers' Club, and cousin to Olivia Shakespear (who dedicated her novel ''The False Laurel'' to him). In June 1891, Johnson converted to Catholicism, at the same time as he introduced his cousin Lord Alfred Douglas to his friend Oscar Wilde, whom he then repudiated, directing a sonnet at him called "The Destroyer of a Soul" (1892). In 1893, Johnson wrote what some consider his masterpiece, "The Dark Angel".〔 "The Dark Angel" also served as one of the influences for the Dark Angels chapter of Space Marines in the ''Warhammer 40,000'' fictional universe. Their Primarch, Lion El'Jonson, is also named after the poet. ==References==
