Amateur poet touring India with native of Latvia (10)
I believe the answer is:
dilettante
'amateur' is the definition.
(I know that dilettante is a type of amateur)
'poet touring india with native of latvia' is the wordplay.
'poet' becomes 'Dante' (ltth- and ltth-century Italian poet).
'touring' means one lot of letters goes inside another (touring can mean going round).
'india' becomes 'i' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'native of latvia' becomes 'lett' (I've seen this before).
'i'+'lett'='ilett'
'dante' going around 'ilett' is 'DILETTANTE'.
(Other definitions for dilettante that I've seen before include "Superficial art lover" , "Superficial dabbler in the arts - title at end (anag)" , "Arty type" , "One dabbling" , "Amateurish" .)
