St. John Welles Lucas-Lucas, commonly known as St. John Lucas, (1879–1934) was an English poet known for his anthologies of verse. He was educated at University College, Oxford. He was from 1905 a friend and mentor of Rupert Brooke.[1]

Lucas wrote short stories and vignettes for Blackwood's Magazine and Open Window. His The Oxford Book of French Verse was published by the Clarendon Press in 1907. A selection of his stories was published in book form by William Blackwood and Sons in 1919 under the title Saints, Sinners, and the Usual People.[2]

He is described in Mike Read's Forever England: The Life of Rupert Brooke as "a homosexual aesthete".[3]
