Johan Henrik Kellgren (1 December 1751 – 20 April 1795) was a Swedish poet and critic. He was born at Floby in Västergötland (now part of Falköping Municipality, Västra Götaland County). He studied at the Royal Academy of Turku, and already had some reputation as a poet when he became a "docent" in aesthetics at the school in 1774. Three years later he moved to Stockholm, where in 1778 he began publishing the journal "Stockholmsposten" with Assessor Carl Lenngren. <a href="https://www.last.fm/
