The Archpoet, or Archipoeta, is a name given to the bibulous and boastful anonymous author of ten poems from medieval Latin literature. The tenth and most famous of these poems is his Goliardic confession, found within the "Carmina Burana" manuscript. He worked in the court of Rainald of Dassel, the bishop elect of Cologne, Germany and Archchancellor to Frederick Barbarossa, Holy Roman Emperor. Wikipedia
