Question: Which poet was born first, A. E. Housman or Jaroslav Seifert ?
Context: Paul Johann Ludwig von Heyse (15 March 1830 – 2 April 1914) was a distinguished German writer and translator.  A member of two important literary societies, the "Tunnel über der Spree" in Berlin and "Die Krokodile" in Munich, he wrote novels, poetry, 177 short stories, and about sixty dramas.  The sum of Heyse's many and varied productions made him a dominant figure among German men of letters.  He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1910 "as a tribute to the consummate artistry, permeated with idealism, which he has demonstrated during his long productive career as a lyric poet, dramatist, novelist and writer of world-renowned short stories."  Wirsen, one of the Nobel judges, said that "Germany has not had a greater literary genius since Goethe."  Heyse is the fifth oldest laureate in literature, after Doris Lessing, Theodor Mommsen, Alice Munro and Jaroslav Seifert. Escovopsis aspergilloides is a species of fungus that was rediscovered in 1995 by mycologists Keith A. Seifert, Robert A. Samson and Ignacio Chapela.  Escovopsis aspergilloides co-exist in a symbiotic relationship with attini ants - fungus-growing ants.  The highly evolved, ancient ant-fungus mutualism has become a model system in the study of symbiosis.  In spite of this, the genus "Escovopsis" was not proposed until 1990 and the first two species were not formally described until the 1990s: "E. weberi" by Muchovej and Della Lucia in 1990 "E. aspergilloides" by Seifert, Samson and Chapela in 1995. Walter Henry Housman III (born October 13, 1962) is a former American football offensive tackle who played one season with the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL).  Housman now serves as an assistant coach for the Baltimore Brigade of the Arena Football League (AFL).  He first enrolled at the University of Iowa before transferring to Upsala College.  He attended Merrimack High School in Merrimack, New Hampshire.  Housman was also a member of the New York Knights, Denver Dynamite and New Orleans Night of the Arena Football League (AFL). Stanislav Kostka Neumann (June 5, 1875, in Prague – June 28, 1947, in Prague) was Czech writer, poet and journalist.  He has undergone many stages of creative: symbolist ("I Am an Apostle of the New Life"), anarchist ("A Dream About a Crowd of Desperate People, and Other Verses"), landscape lyric ("The Book of Forests, Hills, and Waters"), civilist ("New Songs"), communist ("Red Songs") and others.  He was one of the founders of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia.  He was a mentor of Jaroslav Seifert (Seifert was dedicated this his first book). Keith Jebb is a contemporary English poet and critic.  He attended St Catharine's College, Cambridge, and is the current Head Lecturer of Creative Writing at the University of Bedfordshire, Luton.  He is also the author of "A. E. Housman" (Seren Press), a work commended by Harold Bloom in the introduction to his "A. E. Housman". Alfred Edward Housman ( ; 26 March 1859 – 30 April 1936), usually known as A. E. Housman, was an English classical scholar and poet, best known to the general public for his cycle of poems "A Shropshire Lad".  Lyrical and almost epigrammatic in form, the poems wistfully evoke the dooms and disappointments of youth in the English countryside.  Their beauty, simplicity and distinctive imagery appealed strongly to late Victorian and Edwardian taste, and to many early 20th-century English composers both before and after the First World War.  Through their song-settings, the poems became closely associated with that era, and with Shropshire itself. When I Was One-and-Twenty, or Poem XIII, is the informal name of an untitled poem by A. E. Housman, published in "A Shropshire Lad" in 1896.  It is the thirteenth in a cycle of 63 poems.  One of Housman's most familiar poems, it is untitled but often anthologised under a title taken from its first line. " The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations" includes fourteen of its sixteen lines.  Housman's "New York Times" obituary mentioned the poem: "Typical of his lyrics is the poem which has thrilled the world where English is spoken."  Its subject matter, "then and now" temporal perspective, meter, and narrative structure within each verse parallel those of William Butler Yeats' "Down by the Salley Gardens", itself a reworking of "The Rambling Boys of Pleasure". Jaroslav Seifert (] ; 23 September 1901 – 10 January 1986) was a Nobel Prize–winning Czechoslovak writer, poet and journalist. Ludvík Kundera (22 March 1920 – 17 August 2010) was a Czech writer, translator, poet, playwright, editor and literary historian.  He was a notable exponent of the Czech avant-garde literature and a prolific translator of German authors.  In 2007, he received the Medal of Merit for service to the Republic.  In 2009, he was awarded the "Jaroslav Seifert Award", presented by the Charter 77 Foundation.  Kundera was a cousin of Czech-French writer Milan Kundera and nephew of the pianist and musicologist also named Ludvík Kundera. The Jaroslav Seifert Prize is a prestigious Czech literary prize.  It was originally awarded to authors in exile during the Soviet era.
