The Life and Times of Sir Thomas Elyot, Englishman
"Sir Thomas Elyot (c. 1490? 26 March 1546) was an English diplomat and scholar ... Elyot received little reward for his services to the state, but his scholarship and his books were held in high esteem by his contemporaries. Thomas Elyot was a supporter of the humanists ideas concerning the education of women, writing in support of learned women, he published the "Defence of Good Women." In this writing he supported Thomas More and other humanist authors' ideals of educated wives who would be able to provide intellectual companionship for their husbands and educated moral training for their children."--Wikipedia.
