 William Quiller Orchardson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As a student, he was not especially precocious or industrious, but his work was distinguished by a peculiar reserve, by an unusual determination that his hand should be subdued to his eye, with the result that his early things reach their own ideal as surely as those of his maturity.
It was too quiet to compel attention at the Royal Academy, and Pettie, Orchardson's junior by four years, stepped before him for a time, and became the most readily accepted member of the school.
The period between 1862 and 1880 was one of quiet ambitions, of a characteristic insouciance, of life accepted as a thing of many-balanced interests rather than as a matter of sturm und drang.

 JOHN LYLY - LoveToKnow Article on JOHN LYLY   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
LYLY (LILLY, or LYLIE), JOHN (1553-1606), English writer, the famous author of Euphues, was born in Kent in 1553 or 1554.
It may be conjectured with great probability that the ten years date from 1579, when Edmund Tylney was appointed master of the revels with a tacit understanding that Lyly was to have the next reversion of the post.
The earliest book in which it was fully adopted was A petite Pallace of Pettie his Pleasure, by George Pettie, which appeared in 1576, a production so closely akin to Euphues in tone and style that it is difficult to believe it was not by Lyly.

Pettie undertakes to set before us, in some what formal fashion, the graces and attractions of the Young Pretender, who still lives in Scottish song and tradition as "Bonnie Prince Charlie." The handsomeness of person and affability of manner of this young prince have been recorded by all the historians.
Through his father, the Chevalier St. George, he inherited the claim to the English throne from his grandfather, James II., and his own attempt to make good this claim by force of arms was ended by the bloody battle of Culloden in 1746.

 Shakespeare's Unorthodox Biography - New Evidence of an Authorship Problem by Diana Price
George Pettie offers testimony to a general reluctance of the Tudor gentleman to betray his learning by writing and publishing anything, even serious matter, and his statements support the existence of a stigma of print.
Alarmed by the "too wanton" nature of the work, the printer then "gelded" it of "such matters as may seem offensive." Authorial disavowal of an intention to publish was not uncommon in the late sixteenth century; such a stance represents an attempt to circumvent the class derogation attached to print.
Pettie defends the idea of publishing serious work, although he explains that he is publishing Civile Conversations to make up for the triviality of Pettie Palace.
