<<After Helen had been kidnapped by Paris, the Oath of Tyndareus was invoked, according to which all previous suitors of Helen should defend the couple in any future setback. Odysseus had also taken the oath, but did not want to take part in the war, because an oracle had told him it would take him decades to return to his family. Agamemnon sent Palamedes in order to get Odysseus; when he arrived in Ithaca, Odysseus pretended to be insane by plowing salt in his fields. Palamedes realised that this was a trick, and put Odysseus' infant son Telemachus in front of the plow. Odysseus, unable to kill his son, revealed his trick and was forced to join the Greek army.>>

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outis
<<{OUTIS} (transliteration of Ancient Greek Οὖτις, in capitals ΟΥΤΙΣ, from οὔτις "nobody" or "no one") is an often used pseudonym. Artists, writers and others in public life use this pseudonym in order to hide their identity. The Latin equivalent [NEMO] is also often used.
"Outis" was used as a pseudonym by the Homeric hero Odysseus, when he fought the Cyclops Polyphemus, and had put out the monster's eye. Polyphemus shouted in pain to the other Cyclopes of the island that "Nobody" was trying to kill him, so no one came to his rescue. The story of the Cyclops can be found in the Odyssey, book 9. The name Nobody can be found in five different lines of Book 9.
First of all in line 366: "Cyclops, you asked my noble name, and I will tell it; but do you give the stranger's gift, just as you promised. My name is Nobody. Nobody I am called by mother, father, and by all my comrades."
Then in line 369: So I spoke, and from a ruthless heart he straightway answered: "Nobody I eat up last, after his comrades; all the rest first; and that shall be the stranger's gift for you."
Then in line 408: Then in his turn from out the cave big Polyphemus answered: "Friends, Nobody is murdering me by craft. Force there is none." But answering him in winged words they said: "If nobody harms you when you are left alone, illness which comes from mighty Zeus you cannot fly. But make your prayer to your father, lord Poseidon".
In line 455: "Are you sorry because that wicked Nobody brought your master down with drink and blinded him?".
And in line 460: "I should thus have some revenge for the harm that no-good Nobody has done me".>>

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odysseus#Name,_etymology,_and_epithets
<<Relatively little is given of Odysseus' background other than that according to Pseudo-Apollodorus, his paternal grandfather or step-grandfather is Arcesius, son of Cephalus and grandson of Aeolus, while his maternal grandfather is the thief Autolycus, son of Hermes and Chione. Hence, Odysseus was the great-grandson of the Olympian god Hermes.
According to the Iliad and Odyssey, his father is Laertes and his mother Anticlea, although there was a non-Homeric tradition that Sisyphus was his true father. The rumour went that Laërtes bought Odysseus from the conniving king. Odysseus is said to have a younger sister, Ctimene, who went to Same to be married and is mentioned by the swineherd Eumaeus, whom she grew up alongside, in book 15 of the Odyssey
The form Ὀδυσ(σ)εύς Odys(s)eus is used starting in the epic period and through the classical period, but various other forms are also found. In Latin, he was known as Ulixēs or (considered less correct) Ulyssēs. The change between d and l is common also in some Indo-European and Greek names,and the Latin form is supposed to be derived from the Etruscan Uthuze.
The etymology of the name is unknown. Ancient authors linked the name to the Greek verbs odussomai (ὀδύσσομαι) “to be wroth against, to hate”, to oduromai (ὀδύρομαι) “to lament, bewail”, or even to ollumi (ὄλλυμι) “to perish, to be lost”. Homer relates it to various forms of this verb in references and puns. In Book 19 of the Odyssey, where Odysseus' early childhood is recounted, Euryclea asks the boy's grandfather Autolycus to name him. Euryclea seems to suggest a name like Polyaretos, "for he has much been prayed for" (πολυάρητος) but Autolycus "apparently in a sardonic mood" decided to give the child another name commemorative of "his own experience in life": "Since I have been angered (ὀδυσσάμενος odyssamenos) with many, both men and women, let the name of the child be Odysseus". Odysseus often receives the patronymic epithet Laertiades (Λαερτιάδης), "son of Laërtes". In the Iliad and Odyssey there are several further epithets used to describe Odysseus.>>
------------------------------------------------------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartholomew_the_Apostle
<<The account of Bartholomew, patron saint of {TANNERS}, being skinned alive in Albanopolis, Macedon, is the most represented in works of art, and consequently Bartholomew is often shown with a large knife, holding his own skin (as in Michelangelo's Last Judgment), or both. Archaeological research has shown that the cult of Saint Bartholomew began in Avezzano, because the previous presence of a temple dedicated to Heracles, which is always represented in the act of holding the skin of the Nemean Lion. There is, therefore, a solid relationship between the two iconographies and the re-semantization of the symbols Heracles/Physical Strength/Hero and Bartholomew/Power of Faith/Hero-Martyr. Bartholomew plays a part in *FRANCIS BACON's* Utopian tale New Atlantis, about a mythical isolated land, [BEN]{SALEM}, populated by a people dedicated to reason and natural philosophy. Some twenty years after the ascension of Christ the people of [BEN]{SALEM} found an ark floating off their shore. The ark contained a letter as well as the books of the Old and New Testaments. The letter was from Bartholomew the Apostle and declared that an angel told him to set the ark and its contents afloat. Thus the scientists of [BEN]{SALEM} received the revelation of the Word of God.>>

...........................................................
As Terence for his translations out of Apollodorus and Menander, and Aquilius for
his translation out of Menander, and C. Germanicus Augustus for his out of Aratus,
and Ausonius for his translated Epigrams out of Greeke, and Doctor Iohnson for
his Frogge-fight out of Homer, and Watson for his Antigone out of Sophocles, have
got good commendations: so these versifiers for their learned translations are of
good note among vs, Pha[E]r for Virgil’s Æneads, Golding for Ouid’s Metamorp[H]osis,
Harington for his Orlando Furioso, the Tran[S]lators of Seneca’s Tragedies, Barnabe
Googe for P[A]lingenius, Turb{E}ruile for Ouid’s Epistles and Ma[N]tuan, and
Chapman for his inchoate {H}omer.
As the La[T]ines haue these Emblematists, Andreas Alciatus, Reu{S}nerus, and
Sambucus: so we haue these, Geffrey Whitney, Andrew Willet, {A}nd Thomas Combe.
As Nonnus Panapolyta writ the Gospell of Saint Ioh{N} in Greeke hexameters:
so Iervis Markham hath written Salomon’s Can{T}icles in English verse.

The details surrounding [T]homas [NASHE]'s death are uncertain. He died in 1601, aged 34, and various causes ranging from the plague to food poisoning to a stroke have been suggested. In Thomas Dekker's A Knight's Conjuring (2nd ed. revised of his News from Hell), he described Nashe in Elysium "still haunted with the sharp and satirical spirit that followed him here upon earth."
An anonymous contemporary tribute to Nashe said:
.............................................................
. Let all his faults sleep with his mournful chest,
. And there for ever with his ashes rest.
. His style was witty, though it had some gall,
. Some things he might have mended, so may all.
. Yet this I say, that for a mother wit,
. Few men have ever seen the like of it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://www.members.tripod.com/sicttasd/death.html
<<On June 1, 1599 a rather edgy government began a crackdown on satire. In particular it issued a sweeping ban on all Nashe's works, past and to come, ordering the printers to burn existing stocks. From that time on, as Nashe's biographer Charles Nicholl puts it, "Amid the smoke of the Elizabethan police state, Nashe begins to fade from view." The next mentions of him make it clear that he is dead.
In a play produced in 1601 at his old university, Cambridge, comes a valedictory comment.

INGENIOSO. Christopher Marlowe.
IUDICIO. Marlowe was happy in his buskined muse,
. Alas! unhappy in his life and end;

. Wit lent from heaven, but vices sent from hell.
INGENIOSO. Our Theatre hath lost, Pluto hath got,

Benjamin Ionson.
IUDICIO. The wittiest fellow of a Bricklayer in England.
INGENIOSO. A mere Empiric, one that gets what he hath by observation, and
. makes only nature privy to what he endites; so slow an inventor, that

. whoreson, as confident now in making of a book, as he was in times past
. in laying of a brick.
William Shakespeare.
IUDICIO. W[H]o loves not Adon’s lov[E], or Lucrece’ rape;

. Could but a graver subject him content,
. Without love’s foolish lazy languishment.

IUDICIO. No, all light pamphlets once, aye, finden shall,
. A Church-yard and a grave to bury all.
INGENIOSO. Thomas Nash.
. Ay! here is a fellow, Iudicio, that carried the deadly
. Stockado in his pen, whose muse was armed with a gagtooth,
. and his pen possessed with Hercules’ furies.
IUDICIO. Let all his faults sleep with his mournful chest,
. And then for ever with his ashes rest.
. His style was witty, though he had some gall.
. Some things he might have mended, so may all.
. Yet this I say, that for a mother wit,
. Few men have ever seen the like of it.
Ingenioso reads the rest of the names.
IUDICIO. As for these, they have some of them been the old hedgestakes
. of the press, and some of them are at this instant the bots and
. glanders of the printing house. Fellows that stand only upon terms
. to serve the turn, with their blotted papers, write as men go to
. stool, for needs, and when they write, they write as a bear pisses,
. now and then drop a pamphlet.

<<Two editions of Christopher Marlowe's _Hero and Leander_ were issued in quarto in 1598; one, printed by Adam Islip for the bookseller Edward Blount, contained only Marlowe's original, while the other, printed by Felix Kingston for Paul Linley, included both the original and Chapman's continuation. In Bartholomew Fair, Ben Jonson lampoons the poem in the fair's puppet show; his Hellespont is the Thames, and his Leander is a DYER's son in Puddle-wharf. Hero and Leander is also the only identifiable work of a contemporary writer quoted in any of the plays of William Shakespeare, specifically in As You Like It.>>

Like two sweet birds surnam'd th'Acanthides,
Which we call Thistle-warps, that neere no Seas
Dare euer come, but still in couples flie,
And feede on Thistle tops, to testifie
The hardnes of their first life in their last:
The first in thornes of loue, and sorrowes past,
And so most beautifull their colours show,
As none (so little) like them: her sad brow
A sable veluet feather couers quite,
Euen like the forehead cloths that in the night,
Or when they sorrow, Ladies vse to weare:
Their wings, blew, red and yellow mixt appeare,
Colours, that as we construe colours paint
Their states to life; the yellow shewes their saint,
The deuill Venus left them; blew their truth,
The red and black, ensignes of death and ruth.
And this true honor from their loue-deaths sprung,
They were the first that euer Poet sung.

<<After Helen had been kidnapped by Paris, the Oath of Tyndareus was invoked, according to which all previous suitors of Helen should defend the couple in any future setback. Odysseus had also taken the oath, but did not want to take part in the war, because an oracle had told him it would take him decades to return to his family. Agamemnon sent Palamedes in order to get Odysseus; when he arrived in Ithaca, Odysseus pretended to be insane by plowing salt in his fields. Palamedes realised that this was a trick, and put Odysseus' infant son Telemachus in front of the plow. Odysseus, unable to kill his son, revealed his trick and was forced to join the Greek army.>>

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outis
<<{OUTIS} (transliteration of Ancient Greek Οὖτις, in capitals ΟΥΤΙΣ, from οὔτις "nobody" or "no one") is an often used pseudonym. Artists, writers and others in public life use this pseudonym in order to hide their identity. The Latin equivalent [NEMO] is also often used.
"Outis" was used as a pseudonym by the Homeric hero Odysseus, when he fought the Cyclops Polyphemus, and had put out the monster's eye. Polyphemus shouted in pain to the other Cyclopes of the island that "Nobody" was trying to kill him, so no one came to his rescue. The story of the Cyclops can be found in the Odyssey, book 9. The name Nobody can be found in five different lines of Book 9.
First of all in line 366: "Cyclops, you asked my noble name, and I will tell it; but do you give the stranger's gift, just as you promised. My name is Nobody. Nobody I am called by mother, father, and by all my comrades."
Then in line 369: So I spoke, and from a ruthless heart he straightway answered: "Nobody I eat up last, after his comrades; all the rest first; and that shall be the stranger's gift for you."
Then in line 408: Then in his turn from out the cave big Polyphemus answered: "Friends, Nobody is murdering me by craft. Force there is none." But answering him in winged words they said: "If nobody harms you when you are left alone, illness which comes from mighty Zeus you cannot fly. But make your prayer to your father, lord Poseidon".
In line 455: "Are you sorry because that wicked Nobody brought your master down with drink and blinded him?".
And in line 460: "I should thus have some revenge for the harm that no-good Nobody has done me".>>
--------------------------------------------------------------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odysseus#Name,_etymology,_and_epithets
<<Relatively little is given of Odysseus' background other than that according to Pseudo-Apollodorus, his paternal grandfather or step-grandfather is Arcesius, son of Cephalus and grandson of Aeolus, while his maternal grandfather is the thief Autolycus, son of Hermes and Chione. Hence, Odysseus was the great-grandson of the Olympian god Hermes.
According to the Iliad and Odyssey, his father is Laertes and his mother Anticlea, although there was a non-Homeric tradition that Sisyphus was his true father. The rumour went that Laërtes bought Odysseus from the conniving king. Odysseus is said to have a younger sister, Ctimene, who went to Same to be married and is mentioned by the swineherd Eumaeus, whom she grew up alongside, in book 15 of the Odyssey
The form Ὀδυσ(σ)εύς Odys(s)eus is used starting in the epic period and through the classical period, but various other forms are also found. In Latin, he was known as Ulixēs or (considered less correct) Ulyssēs. The change between d and l is common also in some Indo-European and Greek names,and the Latin form is supposed to be derived from the Etruscan Uthuze.
The etymology of the name is unknown. Ancient authors linked the name to the Greek verbs odussomai (ὀδύσσομαι) “to be wroth against, to hate”, to oduromai (ὀδύρομαι) “to lament, bewail”, or even to ollumi (ὄλλυμι) “to perish, to be lost”. Homer relates it to various forms of this verb in references and puns. In Book 19 of the Odyssey, where Odysseus' early childhood is recounted, Euryclea asks the boy's grandfather Autolycus to name him. Euryclea seems to suggest a name like Polyaretos, "for he has much been prayed for" (πολυάρητος) but Autolycus "apparently in a sardonic mood" decided to give the child another name commemorative of "his own experience in life": "Since I have been angered (ὀδυσσάμενος odyssamenos) with many, both men and women, let the name of the child be Odysseus". Odysseus often receives the patronymic epithet Laertiades (Λαερτιάδης), "son of Laërtes". In the Iliad and Odyssey there are several further epithets used to describe Odysseus.>>
------------------------------------------------------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartholomew_the_Apostle
<<The account of Bartholomew, patron saint of {TANNERS}, being skinned alive in Albanopolis, Macedon, is the most represented in works of art, and consequently Bartholomew is often shown with a large knife, holding his own skin (as in Michelangelo's Last Judgment), or both. Archaeological research has shown that the cult of Saint Bartholomew began in Avezzano, because the previous presence of a temple dedicated to Heracles, which is always represented in the act of holding the skin of the Nemean Lion. There is, therefore, a solid relationship between the two iconographies and the re-semantization of the symbols Heracles/Physical Strength/Hero and Bartholomew/Power of Faith/Hero-Martyr. Bartholomew plays a part in *FRANCIS BACON's* Utopian tale New Atlantis, about a mythical isolated land, [BEN]{SALEM}, populated by a people dedicated to reason and natural philosophy. Some twenty years after the ascension of Christ the people of [BEN]{SALEM} found an ark floating off their shore. The ark contained a letter as well as the books of the Old and New Testaments. The letter was from Bartholomew the Apostle and declared that an angel told him to set the ark and its contents afloat. Thus the scientists of [BEN]{SALEM} received the revelation of the Word of God.>>

As Terence for his translations out of Apollodorus and Menander, and Aquilius for
his translation out of Menander, and C. Germanicus Augustus for his out of Aratus,
and Ausonius for his translated Epigrams out of Greeke, and Doctor Iohnson for
his Frogge-fight out of Homer, and Watson for his Antigone out of Sophocles, have
got good commendations: so these versifiers for their learned translations are of
good note among vs, Pha[E]r for Virgil’s Æneads, Golding for Ouid’s Metamorp[H]osis,
Harington for his Orlando Furioso, the Tran[S]lators of Seneca’s Tragedies, Barnabe
Googe for P[A]lingenius, Turb{E}ruile for Ouid’s Epistles and Ma[N]tuan, and
Chapman for his inchoate {H}omer.
As the La[T]ines haue these Emblematists, Andreas Alciatus, Reu{S}nerus, and
Sambucus: so we haue these, Geffrey Whitney, Andrew Willet, {A}nd Thomas Combe.

The details surrounding [T]homas [NASHE]'s death are uncertain. He died in 1601, aged 34, and various causes ranging from the plague to food poisoning to a stroke have been suggested. In Thomas Dekker's A Knight's Conjuring (2nd ed. revised of his News from Hell), he described Nashe in Elysium "still haunted with the sharp and satirical spirit that followed him here upon earth."
An anonymous contemporary tribute to Nashe said:
.............................................................
. Let all his faults sleep with his mournful chest,
. And there for ever with his ashes rest.
. His style was witty, though it had some gall,
. Some things he might have mended, so may all.
. Yet this I say, that for a mother wit,
. Few men have ever seen the like of it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://www.members.tripod.com/sicttasd/death.html
<<On June 1, 1599 a rather edgy government began a crackdown on satire. In particular it issued a sweeping ban on all Nashe's works, past and to come, ordering the printers to burn existing stocks. From that time on, as Nashe's biographer Charles Nicholl puts it, "Amid the smoke of the Elizabethan police state, Nashe begins to fade from view." The next mentions of him make it clear that he is dead.
In a play produced in 1601 at his old university, Cambridge, comes a valedictory comment.

INGENIOSO. Thomas Nash.
. Ay! here is a fellow, Iudicio, that carried the deadly
. Stockado in his pen, whose muse was armed with a gagtooth,
. and his pen possessed with Hercules’ furies.
IUDICIO. Let all his faults sleep with his mournful chest,
. And then for ever with his ashes rest.
. His style was witty, though he had some gall.
. Some things he might have mended, so may all.
. Yet this I say, that for a mother wit,

Ingenioso reads the rest of the names.
IUDICIO. As for these, they have some of them been the old hedgestakes
. of the press, and some of them are at this instant the bots and
. glanders of the printing house. Fellows that stand only upon terms
. to serve the turn, with their blotted papers, write as men go to

<<Within weeks of his [30 May *1593*] death:
. [G]eorge [PEELE] remembered Marlowe
. . as "{MARLEY}, the Muses' darling";
.
. . Michael Drayton noted that Marlowe
."Had in him those brave translunary
. . things That the first poets had"
and Ben Jonson wrote of "Marlowe's mighty line".
...................................................
[T]homas [NASHE] wrote warmly of his friend,
. . . "poor deceased (KIT) Marlowe,"
as did the publisher Edward Blount in his dedication
. of Hero and Leander to Sir Thomas Walsingham.>>
----------------------------------------------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero_and_Leander_(poem)
<<Two editions of Christopher Marlowe's _Hero and Leander_ were issued in quarto in 1598; one, printed by Adam Islip for the bookseller Edward Blount, contained only Marlowe's original, while the other, printed by Felix Kingston for Paul Linley, included both the original and Chapman's continuation. In Bartholomew Fair, Ben Jonson lampoons the poem in the fair's puppet show; his Hellespont is the Thames, and his Leander is a DYER's son in Puddle-wharf. Hero and Leander is also the only identifiable work of a contemporary writer quoted in any of the plays of William Shakespeare, specifically in As You Like It.>>

. . . As You Like It Act 4, Scene 1
.
ROSALIND: No faith, die by Attorney: the poore world is
. almost six thousand yeeres old, and in all this time there
. was not anie man died in his owne person (videlicet) in
. a loue cause: Troilous had his braines dash'd out with a
. Grecian club, yet he did what hee could to die before,
. and he is one of the patternes of loue. Leander, he would
. haue liu'd manie a faire yeere though (HERO) had turn'd
. Nun; if it had not bin for a hot Midsomer-night, for
. (good youth) he went but forth to wash him in the Hel-
. lespont, and being taken with the crampe, was droun'd,
. and the foolish Chronoclers of that age, found it was
. Hero of Cestos. But these are all lies, men haue died
. from time to time, and wormes haue eaten them,
. but not for loue.

.
. She bowes her head, the new-sprong floure to smel,
. Comparing it to her Adonis breath,
. And saies within her bosome it shall dwell,
. Since he himselfe is reft from h[E]r by death;
. She crop's the stalke, and in the breac[H] appeares,
. Green-dropping sap, which she copare[S] to teares.
. Poore floure (quoth she) this was thy f[A]thers guise,
. Sweet issue of a more sweet smelli[N]g sire,
. For euerie little griefe to wet his eies,
.[T]o grow vnto himselfe was his desire;
. And so tis thine, but know it is as good,
. To wither in my brest, as in his blood.

. Here was thy fathers bed, here in my brest,
. Thou art the next of blood, and tis thy right.
. Lo in this hollow cradle take thy rest,
. My throbbing hart shall rock thee day and night;
. There shall not be one minute in an houre,
. Wherein I wil not kisse my sweet loues floure.
. Thus weary of the world, away she hies,
. And yokes her siluer doues, by whose swift aide,
. Their mistresse mounted through the emptie skies,
. In her light chariot, quickly is conuaide,
. Holding their course to Paphos, where their queen,
. Meanes to immure her selfe, and not beseen.

She saw him, and the sight was much much more,
Then might haue seru'd to kill her; should her store
Of giant sorrowes speake? Burst, d{Y}e, bleede,
And leaue poor{E} plaints to vs that sha(L|L} succeede.
She fell on h(E|R} loues bosome, hugg'd it (F|A}st,
And with Leanders *NA{M}E* she breath'd her last.

Neptune for pittie in his armes did take them,
Flung them into the ayre, and did awake them.
Like two sweet birds surnam'd th'Acanthides,
Which we call Thistle-warps, that neere no Seas
Dare euer come, but still in couples flie,
And feede on Thistle tops, to testifie
The hardnes of their first life in their last:
The first in thornes of loue, and sorrowes past,
And so most beautifull their colours show,
As none (so little) like them: her sad brow
A sable veluet feather couers quite,
Euen like the forehead cloths that in the night,
Or when they sorrow, Ladies vse to weare:
Their wings, blew, red and yellow mixt appeare,
Colours, that as we construe colours paint
Their states to life; the yellow shewes their saint,
The deuill Venus left them; blew their truth,
The red and black, ensignes of death and ruth.
And this true honor from their loue-deaths sprung,
They were the first that euer Poet sung.
FINIS.
