Sir John Cheke (or Cheek) (16 June 1514 – 13 September 1557) was an English classical scholar and statesman. One of the foremost teachers of his age, and the first Regius Professor of Greek at the University of Cambridge, he played a great part in the revival of Greek learning in England. He was tutor to Prince Edward, the future King Edward VI, and also sometimes to Princess Elizabeth. Of strongly Reformist sympathy in religious affairs, his public career as provost of King's College, Cambridge, Member of Parliament and briefly as Secretary of State during King Edward's reign was brought to a close by the accession of Queen Mary in 1553. He went into voluntary exile abroad, at first under royal licence (which he overstayed). He was captured and imprisoned in 1556, and recanted his faith t

  • Sir John Cheke (* 16. Juni 1514 in Cambridge; † 13. September 1557 in London) war ein englischer Gelehrter (Altphilologe) und Staatsmann. Sein Vater war Pedell (Bedel) der University of Cambridge. Cheke studierte am St John’s College in Cambridge, dessen Fellow er 1529 wurde. Noch während des Studiums trat er zum Protestantismus über, was ihm die Protektion des Königs Heinrich VIII. brachte. 1540 wurde er der erste Regius Professor für Griechisch. Zu seinen Schülern in Cambridge zählten William Cecil, 1. Baron Burghley, der die Schwester Mary von Cheke heiratete, und Roger Ascham. Mit seinem Freund Thomas Smith galt er als einer der führenden Altphilologen Englands, auch wenn ihr Versuch der Reformation der Aussprache des Altgriechischen damals noch auf heftigen Widerstand stieß.
