Holy Lie A Holy Lie is a philosophical concept coined by Friedrich Nietzsche in his note manuscript "The will to power". It is additionally mentioned in another book of Nietzsche "The Antichrist".
Barten Holyday Barten Holyday or Holiday (1593–1661) was a clergyman, author and poet. He earned a Doctor of Divinity degree, and entered the clergy in 1615; he was appointed archdeacon of Oxford by King Charles I in 1626. "Technogamia" was his only play. In 1618, the year it was produced, Holyday served as Sir Francis Stewart's chaplain on Stewart's embassy to Spain. Holyday translated the "Odes" of Horace and works of Juvenal and Persius, and wrote "A Survey of the World, in Verse" (1661), plus sermons and miscellaneous works. He was summed up by one commentator as "a good scholar, a shrewd critic, and a fair wit." His translations show strong fidelity to their originals, and have often been considered the best of his works. Samuel Johnson said in "Idler" 69 that his translations were those of "only a scholar and a critick" not a poet.
