 Aetion - LoveToKnow 1911
AETION, or Eetion, a Greek painter, mentioned by Cicero, Pliny and Lucian.
He is said to have exhibited it at the Olympic games, and by it so to have won the favour of the president that he gave him his daughter in marriage.
Through a misunderstanding of the words of Lucian, Aetion has been supposed to belong to the age of the Antonines; but there can be little doubt that he was a contemporary of Alexander and of Apelles (Brunn, Geschichte der griechischen Kiinstler, ii.

 Aetiological action in Ovid's Metamorphoses
The Daphne episode concludes with aetiologies for the use of laurel in Apollo's cult and as an honor for Roman generals and for Augustus.
Ovidian critics usually assume that the aetia of the Metamorphoses are predominately natural or "scientific," in contrast to the religious or cultural aetia of the Fasti.
But the laurel aetion, like many others, draws on and explores in myth the cultural meaning of a natural object.

Aetion, as he had no child, either by this wife or by any other, went to Delphi to consult the oracle concerning the matter.
By some chance this address of the oracle to Aetion came to the ears of the Bacchiadae, who till then had been unable to perceive the meaning of another earlier prophecy which likewise bore upon Corinth, and pointed to the same event as Aetion's prediction.
So the men came to Petra, and went into Aetion's house, and there asked if they might see the child; and Labda, who knew nothing of their purpose, but thought their inquiries arose from a kindly feeling towards her husband, brought the child, and laid him in the arms of one of them.

 Looney's "Shakespeare" Identified
His reference to "Willie" in his poem, the "Tears of the Muses," it is very commonly agreed nowadays, could not, on account of its date, have any reference to William Shakspere.
The only possible allusion to Shakespeare which he makes is in 1595, in his poem "Colin Clout's Come Home Again." That his "Aetion" has anything to do with Shakespeare is pure conjecture, based upon the assumption that only "Shakespeare" could deserve the high praise which Spenser bestows upon the poet so designated.
If, however, we accept the date which Spenser himself attaches to the dedication of the poem to Sir Walter Raleigh, namely 1591, it is evident that "Aetion" could not be "William Shakspere," and could [54] have no connection with the great "Shakespeare" poems, which were not published until 1593 and 1594.

 Allusions: The URL of Derby
The lines in this poem concerning Ferdinando and his wife were added after Ferdinando's death ("Amyntas quite is gone and lies full lowe"), so William would have assumed the title of Earl of Derby and become the head of the house of Stanley, the Eagle's Nest.
"Aetion" derives from the Greek "Aetos", meaning eagle.
So, immediately after the lines praising other Stanley family members, Spenser seems to refer to William Stanley (Aetion) as a poet (shepherd was the poetic term for the poets) full of invention—Donne's word as well.

None of Aetion’s work survives, but Pliny ascribed to him pictures of Dionysos, Tragedy and Comedy, Semiramis Rising from Slavery to Royal Power and an Old Woman Carrying Lamps and Attending a Bride, whose modesty was apparent.
Lucian added that when the painting was shown at Olympia, Proxenides, one of the chief judges of the games, was so impressed by it that he gave his daughter to Aetion in marriage.
Another Aetion, also assigned to the 107th Olympiad, appears in a list of bronze sculptors drawn up by Pliny (XXXIV.50); this is probably an interpolation from XXXV.78.

There is nothing in the whole world so unjust, nothing so bloody, as a tyranny....If you knew what tyranny was as well as ourselves, you would be better advised than you now are in regard to it.
The government at Corinth was once an oligarchy, and this group of men, called the Bacchiadae, held sway in the city, marrying and giving in marriage among themselves....Eventually, Cypselus, the son of Aetion, [one of the Bacchiadae] became master of Corinth.
Having thus got the tyranny, he showed himself a harsh ruler---many of the Corinthians he drove into banishment, many he deprived of his fortune, and a still greater number of their lives.
