Philemon Holland
Philemon Holland (1552 – 9 February 1637) was an English schoolmaster, physician, and translator. He is known particularly for having produced the first English translations of works by Livy, Pliny the Elder, and Plutarch, as well as for his translation of William Camden's ''Britannia''.
==Family==
Philemon Holland, born at Chelmsford, Essex, in 1552, was the son of John Holland (d.1578), a member of the same Norfolk family as John Holland, 1st Baron Holland (1603–1701). The Norfolk branch claimed kinship with the Hollands of Up Holland, Lancashire, but this is questionable.〔.〕〔Lee and Sharpe state that he was of the family of Holland of Denton, in Lancashire.〕 Holland's grandfather, Edward Holland, was of Glassthorpe, Northamptonshire.〔.〕 Holland's father, John Holland, was one of the Marian exiles with Miles Coverdale during the reign of Mary I, when Catholicism was reestablished. After the accession of Elizabeth I in November 1558 he returned to England, and in 1559 was ordained by Bishop Edmund Grindal.〔 He was appointed rector of Great Dunmow, Essex, on 26 September 1564, where he died in 1578.〔
