	John Aubrey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Aubrey (March 12, 1626–June, 1697) was an English antiquary and writer, best known as the author of the collection of short biographical pieces usually referred to as Brief Lives.
		Aubrey approached the work of the biographer much as his contemporary scientists had begun to approach the work of empirical research by the assembly of vast museums and small collection cabinets.
		Aubrey died of an apoplexy while travelling, in June 1697, and was buried in the churchyard of St Mary Magdalene, Oxford.

	John Suckling (poet) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		His father was Sir John Suckling, a courtier and his mother was Elizabeth Cranfield, sister of Sir Lionel Cranfield, 1st of Earl of Middlesex.
		Aubrey says that he invented the game of cribbage, and relates that his sisters came weeping to the bowling green at Piccadilly to dissuade him from play, fearing that he would lose their portions.
		The manner of his death is uncertain, but Aubrey's statement that he put an end to his life by poison in May or June 1642 in fear of poverty is generally accepted.

		Sir Kenneth Clark once said that Aubrey Beardsley's drawings "positively suggested vice as a more interesting alternative." This idea is perfectly embodied in "The Story of Venus and Tannhauser," a short novel that combines Beardsley's fascination with abandoning oneself to sexual pleasure and his love of the artificial and exotic.
