The Pre-Raphalite poet and artist, Dante Gabriel Rossetti
The man was so deep and so illustrative in his writing and illustrations.
I would also like to bring back his sister, Christina Rossetti, who also painted and wrote beautiful poetry.

Holy smoke! Just one?
Definitely Twain, or Bierce. Maybe Poe. Or Dow Mossman. Might have a chance with him since I wouldn't have to resurrect him.
How about if some of you let me just sit and listen during your visits?

I can't believe no one has said this yet but I gotta go with a night bar hopping with Jack Kerouac. When he got drunk he would supposedly ramble on about his theories of writing and I would love to have that conversation.
Second is probably Camus, though I would probably spend the whole time just staring in awe and be unable to speak to him.
Of live authors, gotta be going hiking with Gary Snyder.

For me, I could go for a chat with Wallace Stevens at the moment...
I`d bring back Christopher Marlowe. We`d spend the afternoon talking literature and revolution in a pub in Deptford. Then I`d ask him to settle the bill.
Apart from Marlowe I would like to organize a dinner party for Virginia Woolf, Anthony Burgess, Oscar Wilde, Sir Francis Bacon, Montaigne, Michael Foot and Chaucer. Shouldn`t be too many lapses in the conversation. I wouldn`t even ask them to bring a bottle.
Were you the one who did that a few hundred years ago?I`d bring back Christopher Marlowe. We`d spend the afternoon talking literature and revolution in a pub in Deptford. Then I`d ask him to settle the bill.
