William Tyndale
William Tyndale
English translator and Protestant martyr; his translation of the Bible into English (which later formed the basis for the King James Version) aroused ecclesiastical opposition; he left England in 1524 and was burned at the stake in Antwerp as a heretic (1494-1536) [Angleški prevajalec in protestantski mučenik. Njegov prevod Biblije v angleščino (ki je kasneje služil kot osnova za Kraljevo verzijo) je sprožil cerkveno nasprotovanje, zato je leta 1524 zapustil Anglijo, kjer so ga kot heretika prižgali na grmadi v Antwerpnu (1494-1536).]
