Savile Sir Henry Savile. Born 30 Nov 1549 in Bradley (near Halifax), Yorkshire,England Died 19 Feb 1622 in Eton, Berkshire, England. Click http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Savile.html
Extractions: Henry Savile entered Brasenose College Oxford in 1561 and he was elected a Fellow of Merton College Oxford in 1565. He graduated with an B.A. in 1566 and an M.A. in 1570. On 10 October 1570 he began to lecture at Oxford on Ptolemy 's Almagest and we are fortunate in that his lecture notes for this course have survived. We shall now describe the content of these lectures more fully. The lectures are far more than Ptolemy 's text with added explanation. Savile introduced his students to the new ideas of Regiomontanus and Copernicus . He mentions both classical authors of mathematics, giving their biographies, and the leading mathematicians of the day whose works he had clearly studied. In the introduction to the lectures Savile gives his views on why students should study mathematics. The study of mathematics, argues Savile, turns a student into an educated, civilised human being. As an example he quotes the classical story of Aristippus who, on being shipwrecked on Rhodes, realised that the inhabitants were civilised when he saw a mathematical figure drawn in the sand. It is worth noting, however, that twenty years later, when Savile was trying to make sure his subject received proper funding, he argued for mathematics because of its practical uses.
SAVILE, SIR HENRY von Savigny (18141875), was Prussian minister of foreign affairs in 1849 http://58.1911encyclopedia.org/S/SA/SAVILE_SIR_HENRY.htm
Extractions: von Savigny (18141875), was Prussian minister of foreign affairs in 1849. He represented Prussia in important diplomatic transactions, especially in 1866. Savigny belongs to the so-called historical school of jurists, though he cannot daim to be regarded as its founder, an honour which belongs to Gustav Hugo. In the history of jurisprudence Savignys great works are the Rechi des Besilzes and the Beruf anserer Zeit für Gesetlgebung above referred to. The former marks an epoch in jurisprudence. Professor Jhering says: SAVILE, SIR HENRY (15491622), warden of Merton College, Oxford, and provost of Eton, was the son of Henry Savile of Bradley, near Halifax, in Yorkshire, a member of an old county family, the Saviles of Methley, and of his wife Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Ramsden. He was educated at Brasenose College, Oxford, where he matriculated in 1561. He became a fellow of Merton in 1565, proceeded B.A. in 1566, and 1 See Windscheid, Lehrbuch des Pandekienrechis, i. 439. A brother, THOMAS SAVILE (d. 1593), was also a member of Merton College, Oxford, and had some reputation as a scholar.

Extractions: SAVI, PAOLO (17981871), Italian geologist, was born at Pisa. Assistant-lecturer on zoology at the university of his native city when twenty-two years of age, he was appointed professor in 1823, and lectured also on geology. He devoted great attention to the museum of the university, and formed one of the finest natural history collections in Europe. He was regarded as the father of Italian geology. His first paper related to the Bonecaves of Cassano (1825). He studied the geology of Monte Pisano and the Apuan Alps, explaining the metamorphic origin of the Carrara marble; he also contributed essays on the Miocene strata and fossils of Monte Bambolo, the iron-ores of Elba and other subjects. With Giuseppe Meneghini (18111889) he published memoirs on the stratigraphy and geology of Tuscany (185o1851). He became eminent also as an ornithologist, and was author of a great work on the birds of Italy. He died in May 1871. SAVIGLIANO, a town of Piedmont, Italy, in the province of Cuneo, 32 m.

Sir Henry Savile, KNT of Translators, was the renowned scholar afterwards known as sir henry savile. But the matter is put beyond doubt by http://members.tripod.com/~Bible_Study/translators/hsavile.html
Extractions: Some have doubted whether the Mr. Savile, on the list of Translators, was the renowned scholar afterwards known as Sir Henry Savile. But the matter is put beyond doubt by Anthony Wood and others. Savile was born at Bradley, in Yorkshire, November 30th, 1549, of ancient and worshipful extraction. He graduated at Brazen Nose College, Oxford; but afterwards became a Fellow of Merton College. In 1570, he read his ordinaries on the Almagest of Ptolemy, a collection of the geometrical and astronomical observations and problems of the ancients. By this exercise he very early became famous for his Greek and mathematical learning. In this latter science, he for some time read voluntary lectures. In his twenty-ninth year, he travelled in France and elsewhere, to perfect himself in literature; and returned highly accomplished in learning, languages, and knowledge of the world and men. He then became tutor in Greek and mathematics to Queen Elizabeth, whose father, Henry VIII., is said by Southey to have set the example of giving to daughters a learned education. It is to her highest honor, that when she had been more than twenty years upon the throne, she still kept up her habits of study, as appears by this appointment of Mr. Savile. In 1686, he was made Warden of Merton College, which office he filled with great credit for six and thirty years, and also to the great prosperity of the institution. Ten years later, he added to this office, that of Provost of Eton College, which school rapidly increased in reputation under him. Thus, as Fuller says, this skilful gardener had, at the same time, a nursery of young plants, and an orchard of grown trees, both flourishing under his careful inspection. He was no admirer of geniuses; but preferred diligence to wit. Give me, he used to say the plodding student. If I would look for wits, I would go to Newgate; there be the wits! As might be expected, he was somewhat unpopular with his scholars, on account of the severity with which he urged them to diligence.

Extractions: RICHARD EEDES GILES TOMSON This good man was a native of "famous London town." In 1571, he entered University College, Oxford and, in 1580, was elected Fellow of All Souls' College. A few years later, he was out in a shower of appointments, "with his dish right side up." He was, at that lucky season, made divinity lecturer in Magdalen College; chaplain to Queen Elizabeth, as was his friend, Dr. Richard Eedes; Prebendary of Repington; Canon residentiary of Hereford; and Rector of Pembridge in Herefordshire. He was a most eminent preacher. He became Doctor in Divinity in 1602; and was, in that year, appointed Dean of Windsor. In virtue of this latter office, he acted as Registrar of the most noble Order of the Garter. Dr. Tomson took a great deal of pains in his part of translation of the Bible, which he did not long survive. He was consecrated Bishop of Gloucester, June 9th, 1611; and a year after, June 14th, 1612, he died, at the age of fifty-nine, "to the great grief of all who knew the piety and learning of the man." Man is like the flower, whose full bloom is the signal for decay to begin. It is singular that Bishop Tomson never visited Gloucester, after his election to that see.

In 1619, Savile founded a Chair of Geometry at Oxford because geometry is almost totally unknown and abandoned in England . After giving the first lectures himself, he asked Briggs to take the post. He was said to be the most learned man of the times, and published many translations from Latin and Greek. He was knighted by James I in 1604. After a disagreement between the University and local builders in 1608, he brought masons John Akroyd and John Bentley from Halifax to build the Fellows' Quadrangle at Merton College, and to finish his extensions to the Bodleian Library.
