   English classical scholar and statesman, tutor to Prince Edward (later   
   Edward VI). Escaped burning at the stake (by Bloody Mary), by formally   
   recanting his beliefs; but the whole degrading process probably led to   
   his death shortly thereafter.   
      
   Oh, the linguistic angle? He disapproved of the "inkhorn terms" then   
   becoming fashionable, and wrote a letter in which he advocated what Wiki   
   calls "English linguistic purism":   
      
   "our own tung shold be written cleane and pure, vnmixt and vnmangeled   
   with borowing of other tunges... For then doth our tung naturallie and   
   praisablie vtter her meaning"
