Thomas Rymer
Thomas Rymer (c. 1643 – 14 December 1713) was an English poet, literary critic, antiquary and historiographer.His lasting contribution was to compile and publish under royal warrant the 17 volumes (the last two posthumously) of the first edition of ''Foedera'', a work conveying treaties between The Crown of England and foreign powers from 1101 to 1625.
Rymer held the office of English Historiographer Royal from 1692 until his death in 1713, which allowed him access to the historical documents published in ''Foedera'' and held in the Tower of London and elsewhere.
He is credited with coining the phrase "poetic justice" in ''The Tragedies of the Last Age Consider'd'' (1678). Provided by Wikipedia
