Francis W. Tancred

Francis W. Tancred is an English poet associated with the Poets' Club, a group of writers, established by T. E. Hulme, who were the forerunners of the Imagist movement. They carried out practical studies on Chinese poetry and "haiku". Tancred's own influence on the genre has been relatively minor.

He is one of the poets referred to in Ezra Pound's Cantos, LXXXII.
