Essex and Raleigh were enemies and rivals who had been temporarily united by leadership of a naval fleet that aimed to seize a Spanish port and capture the silver fleet. The funds for Raleigh referred to in this letter were almost certainly for this expedition, which was then in preparation. The "Islands Voyage" — which included John Donne amongst its participants — sailed in July and ended in disaster.

  • Sir Thomas Overbury -- My 10Th Great-Uncle Brother of My 9Th Great-Grandfather Sir Giles Overbury - by David Arthur
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Overbury Sir Thomas Overbury -- My 10th Great-Uncle Brother of My 9th Great-Grandfather Sir Giles Overbury - by David Arthur Sir Thomas Overbury (baptized 1581 – 14 September 1613) was an English poet and essayist, also known for being the victim of a murder which led to a scandalous trial. His poem A Wife (also referred to as The Wife), which depicted the virtues that a young man should demand of a woman, played a large role in the events that precipitated his murder. http://www.edavidarthur.net/Quotes.htm Quotes attributed to Sir Thomas Overby Background Thomas Overbury was the son of Mary Palmer and Nicholas Overbury, of Bourton-on-the-Hill, Gloucester. He was born at Compton Scorpion, near Ilmington, in Warwickshire. In the autumn of 1595, he became a gentleman commoner of Queen's College, Oxford, took his degree of BA in 1598 and came to London to study law in the Middle Temple. He soon found favour with Sir Robert Cecil, travelled on the Continent and began to enjoy a reputation for an accomplished mind and free manners. Robert Carr About 1601, whilst on holiday in Edinburgh, he met Robert Carr, then an obscure page to the Earl of Dunbar. A great friendship was struck up between the two youths, and they came up to London together. The early history of Carr remains obscure, and it is probable that Overbury secured an introduction to court before his young associate contrived to do so. At all events, when Carr attracted the attention of James I in 1606 by breaking his leg in the tilt-yard, Overbury had for some time been servitor-in-ordinary to the king.

The Iconographyof False Friendship By CLIFFORD DAVIDSON THE REALIZATION THAT iconographic tableaux appear at central points in the drama of Shakespeare no longer seems to involve a radical critical perspective. Thus a recent study is able to show convincingly that the playwright presented audiences with a Hamlet who upon his first appear- ance on stage illustrated what the Renaissance would certainly have recognized as the melancholic contemplative personality.' As I have noted in a previous article, the hero of Macbeth when he sees the bloody dagger before him is in fact perceiving the image which most clearly denotes tragedy itself; in the emblem books, the dagger is indeed the symbol of tragedy,2 which will be Macbeth's fate if he pursues his bloody course of action. Such tableaux, it must be admitted, are often central to the meaning and the action of the plays.

  • Stapylton Final Version
    1 THE PARLIAMENTARY PRIVILEGE OF FREEDOM FROM ARREST, 1603–1629 Keith A. T. Stapylton UCL Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 Page 2 DECLARATION I, Keith Anthony Thomas Stapylton, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed Page 3 ABSTRACT This thesis considers the English parliamentary privilege of freedom from arrest (and other legal processes), 1603-1629. Although it is under-represented in the historiography, the early Stuart Commons cherished this particular privilege as much as they valued freedom of speech. Previously one of the privileges requested from the monarch at the start of a parliament, by the seventeenth century freedom from arrest was increasingly claimed as an ‘ancient’, ‘undoubted’ right that secured the attendance of members, and safeguarded their honour, dignity, property, and ‘necessary’ servants. Uncertainty over the status and operation of the privilege was a major contemporary issue, and this prompted key questions for research. First, did ill definition of the constitutional relationship between the crown and its prerogatives, and parliament and its privileges, lead to tensions, increasingly polemical attitudes, and a questioning of the royal prerogative? Where did sovereignty now lie? Second, was it important to maximise the scope of the privilege, if parliament was to carry out its business properly? Did ad hoc management of individual privilege cases nevertheless have the cumulative effect of enhancing the authority and confidence of the Commons? Third, to what extent was the exploitation or abuse of privilege an unintended consequence of the strengthening of the Commons’ authority in matters of privilege? Such matters are not treated discretely, but are embedded within chapters that follow a thematic, broadly chronological approach.

  • Philemon Holland in Coventry
    [From Fernelius: Universa Medicina, Geneva, 1679.] CORRESPONDENCE PHILEMON HOLLAND IN COVENTRY To the Editor: Holland’s early life. The seventeenth- I have been interested for some time century biographers and their succes in the life and works of the great Eliza- sors have been forced to bridge the gap between Philemon’s Cambridge days and his appearance as a physician and schoolmaster in Coventry with the gen- eral statement that “soon after 1595 Holland settled at Coventry, where he remained for the rest of his life” (Sir Sidney Lee in “Dictionary of National Biography”). Several months ago I was fortunate enough to secure from a London book- seller a copy of the Aldine “Lucani Civilis Belli,” Venetiis, 1502, on the half-title of which is the dated signature of Philemon Holland, herewith repro- duced. From this it appears that Hol- land was resident in Coventry at least as early as 1587, and this hitherto un- recorded fact sets in train a number of interesting speculations. For example, Holland is said to have been graduated m.d . about 1595, though no mention of it is made in the registers of Oxford or Cambridge Universities. This has led Sir Sidney Lee to surmise that the de- gree was probably conferred by a Scot- bethan translator and physician, Phile- tish or foreign university, a conjecture mon Holland, and am now engaged in which for several reasons I cannot ac- compiling a definitive bibliography of cept. It should be emphasized that Hol- his works and a more detailed account land invariably signed himself “Doctor of his life than is now available.
