English courtier, diplomat, and Master of the Ceremonies under James I and Charles I. He is relevant to the project through writings and observations touching duelling, court protocol, honour, and the management of aristocratic conflict, and thus belongs to the broader literature of martial conduct rather than to technical fencing instruction.
This is a contextual authority profile; his importance lies in court and duel culture.
