Isaac Wake
Sir Isaac Wake (1580/81-1632〔Vivienne Larminie, (‘Wake, Sir Isaac (1580/81–1632)’ ), ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004, accessed 10 Nov 2008〕) was an English diplomat and political commentator. He served as ambassador to Savoy for sixteen years, and later as ambassador to France.
== Early life ==
Isaac Wake was the second son of Arthur, son of John Wake of Hartwell, Northamptonshire, a descendant of the lords of Blisworth. His father, a canon of Christ Church and master of St. John's Hospital in Northampton, was rector of Great Billing in Northamptonshire until 1573, when he was deprived for nonconformity; he afterwards lived for many years in Jersey. Born in 1580 or 1581,〔Archbishop Wake, a relation of Isaak Wake, claimed he was born in 1575; but he is entered as only twelve years old at his Oxford University matriculation on 25 May 1593〕 Isaac Wake entered Christ Church, Oxford in 1593, and graduated B.A. in 1597; he was elected fellow of Merton College, Oxford in 1598, and graduated M.A. in 1603. In 1604 he became a student at the Middle Temple, and on 14 December 1604 was elected public orator of Oxford University. He took part in the reception of King James in 1605, delivering an oration "at the Hall-stair's foot in Christ Church." The king seems to have thought his oratory polished, if soporific. In 1607, he delivered a funeral oration on John Rainolds.
