Although he had studied the law, Harington was attracted early in life to the royal court, where his free-spoken attitude and poetry gained Elizabeth's attention. Elizabeth encouraged his writing, but Harington was inclined to overstep the mark in his somewhat Rabelaisian and occasionally risqué pieces. His attempt at a translation of Ariosto's Orlando Furioso caused his banishment from court for some years. Angered by the raciness of his translations, Elizabeth told Harington that he was to leave and not return until he had translated the entire poem.

On Talbot's character, Horace Walpole, as quoted by Eveline Cruickshanks, wrote of him: > This Lord had long affected a very free-spoken kind of patriotism on all > occasions. He had some wit, and a little tincture of a disordered > understanding; but was better known as a boxer and man of pleasure, than in > the light of a statesman. The Duchess of——had been publicly divorced from > her lord on his account; and was not the only woman of fashion who had lived > with him openly as his mistress. He was strong, well made, and very comely; > but with no air, nor with the manners of a man of quality.

This example uses the homophones "Frank" (given name) and "franc" (honest, free-spoken). Although this same solution would work in Spanish also ("La importancia de ser Franco"), it carries heavy political connotations in Spain due to Francisco Franco's dictatorship (1939–1975), to a point that even this possible title can be taken directly as ironic/sarcastic: literally, "The importance of being Franco", so this alternative was never used. However, the German translation "Ernst sein ist alles" (literally "Being Ernst is everything") only changes the name very slightly, in fact - unlike the equivalents in English - the adjective ernst is even spelt exactly as the name Ernst and, given the position at the beginning of the title, both meanings would be capitalised. The Asterix comic strip is renowned for its French puns; its translators have found many ingenious English substitutes.
