My guess is because it tells the story of an English teacher who inspires his students through his teaching of poetry. The teacher himself used to be a student at the same elite boarding school and he was a member of the "Dead Poet Society" club. Upon learning that information some of the students restart the club. :0) Have you watched the movie?
Yes, I believe they are talking about the dead poets from the past whos poems they are reading. :-)
Yes, I did watch the movie but I still don't get it. Do the "dead poets" refer to the deceased poets whose poems they read at the cave? Is it that simple? For some reason I thought it had a deeper meaning.
