		George Speight (occasionally known as Ilikimi Naitini) was the principal instigator of the Fiji coup of 2000, in which he kidnapped thirty-six government officials and held them from May 19, 2000 to July 13, 2000.
		George Speight was born in 1957 as the son of Sam Speight, a prosperous farmer of ethnic Fijian and European descent.
		At the time of his trial, some of Speight's acquaintances recalled that he had long emphasized the non-Fijian side of his mixed ancestry, until his sudden and spectacular transformation as a Fijian nationalist at the time of the 2000 coup.

	GEORGE STEEVENS - LoveToKnow Article on GEORGE STEEVENS
		Dr Johnson was impressed by the value of this work, and suggested that Steevens should prepare a complete edition of Shakespeare.
		The result, known as Johnsons and Steevenss edition, was The Works of Shakespeare with the Corrections and Illustrations of Various Commentators (Io vols., 1773), Johnsons contributions to which were very slight.
		This early attempt at a variorum edition was revised and reprinted in 1778, and further edited in 1785 by Isaac Reed; but in 1793 Steevens, who had asserted that he was now a dowager-editor, was persuaded by his jealousy of Edmund Malone to resume his labors.

		Steevens publishes an essay describing "the blend of Shakespearean and non-Shakespearean work as a patchwork, comparing it to "embroidery on a blanket, only serving to show in contrast the meanness of the original material."

		Forster, in the "Perennial Calendar," is at a loss for the origin of the command, but he thinks it may have been derived from a notion that the sun would not shine unominously on the day whereon the saint was burnt.
		Steevens knew this, and though he had taken snuff all his life, he never took one pinch after he lost his box in St. Paul's church-yard.
		No; Steevens appears to have discovered the grand secret, that a man's self is the great enemy of himself, and hence his intolerance of self-indulgence even in degree.

		For instance, George Steevens, the Shakespeare scholar, settled a score with Richard Gough, who was then director of the Society for Antiquaries, by fabricating an inscribed stone in commemoration of Hardicanute, an Anglo-Saxon king whose name had been immortalized, appropriately enough, in Lady Wardlaw's ballad forgery
		Gough was convinced of the authenticity of this monument, and at his instigation the inscription immediately became the subject of a learned disquisition by the well-respected antiquary Dr Samuel Pegge, who confidently identified the stone as the work of the eleventh century.
		Steevens then exposed the hoax in the General Evening Post, and Gough was pilloried in the Gentleman's Magazine for his credulity.

	The Poetry of Anne Cecil de Vere, Countess of Oxford
		Steevens writes that Anne Cecil ought to be added to the catalogues of the period as a poet; and he points specifically to (because he feels she belongs in) Horace Walpole's A Catalogue of Royal and Noble Authors of England, Scotland, and Ireland, with Lists of Their Works (first published April 1758).
		Park reveals that the anonymous reviewer was Steevens, quotes some notes on the character of Anne Cecil from a manuscript in Latin, agrees that her mother or husband may have led her to attempt poetry, and adds that the "extreme rareness" of Pandora "induced Mr.
		One cannot tell from Park's text if Park was influenced by Walpole's distrust of Steevens's account; it also is not clear from Park's language whether he is suggesting that Soowthern may have written the poems himself or that Soowthern may have tampered with some originals by the Countess.
