Respuesta :

When Samuel Johnson coined the term “metaphysical poets,” the trait that he was calling attention to was the one that deals with poetry reaching beyond the scope of humanity. 

Samuel Johnson coined the term to describe a loose group of 17th-century English poets whose work was characterized by the inventive use of conceits, and by a greater emphasis on the spoken rather than lyrical quality of their verse.
