Excerpt: ... compromising any truth or principle: but this also was ineffectual. During the whole time of his imprisonment his courage never failed, nor did his spirits suffer any depression. About this time a sermon of Dr. Downham, in defence of the church of England, was sent down to Scotland: Andrew Melville, having obtained a copy, hastily penned an answer or review of the sermon, which he forwarded to James Melville, at Newcastle, who taking a copy for himself sent on the manuscript to his friends in Scotland. Melville, almost despairing of being permitted to return to his own country, began to think seriously of getting leave to transport himself to America, and had actually entered into some negotiation with a view to such an emigration. To what part of America he thought of going, is not known; but the probability is, that his thoughts were turned to Virginia. What prevented him from carrying into effect this project, is uncertain. It is not probable that the court would have made any objection to a removal to so distant a part of the world. It is most likely that he changed his mind. During his confinement, his lonely hours were beguiled by the company of two of the junior members of his family, successively, whom he in structed; the one was the son of his nephew, James Melville--the other, the son of a deceased brother, who was a youth of an unsettled and romantic turn, but having gained a large share of his uncle's affections, he drew from him more money than consisted with the narrowness of his finances. But the chief amusement of Andrew Melville was writing Latin poetry, in which exercise he spent much of his time. He met with a serious pecuniary loss, by having his purse stolen, with all the money which James Melville had sent him to...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Andrew Melville, the Scottish Reformer: Abridged for the Board, From McCrie's Life of Melville Andrew Melville was born near Montrose, in Scotland, on the first of August, 1545, and was the youngest of nine sons. His father, Richard Melville, was slain in battle when Andrew was only two years old; and his eldest brother Richard took charge of the family and faithfully performed the part of a parent to his brothers; and as the subject of this memoir appeared to have a feeble constitution, and a strong inclination to learning, his brother resolved to give him the best education he could. He was first placed in a grammar school, at Montrose, under the tuition of Thomas Anderson, a man of no great erudition, but one of the best teachers of his time. Here Andrew acquired the rudiments of Latin, in which language he became afterwards so great a proficient.

Download or read book Andrew Melville (1545–1622) written by Steven J. Reid and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrew Melville is chiefly remembered today as a defiant leader of radical Protestantism in Scotland, John Knox’s heir and successor, the architect of a distinctive Scottish Presbyterian kirk and a visionary reformer of the Scottish university system. While this view of Melville’s contribution to the shaping of Protestant Scotland has been criticised and revised in recent scholarship, his broader contribution to the development of the neo-Latin culture of early modern Britain has never been given the attention it deserves. Yet, as this collection shows, Melville was much more than simply a religious reformer: he was an influential member of a pan-European humanist network that valued classical learning as much as Calvinist theology. Neglect of this critical aspect of Melville’s intellectual outlook stems from the fact that almost all his surviving writings are in Latin - and much of it in verse. Melville did not pen any substantial prose treatise on theology, ecclesiology or political theory. His poetry, however, reveals his views on all these topics and offers new insights into his life and times. The main concerns of this volume, therefore, are to provide the first comprehensive listing of the range of poetry and prose attributed to Melville and to begin the process of elucidating these texts and the contexts in which they were written. While the volume contributes to an on-going process that has seen Melville’s role as an ecclesiastical politician and educational reformer challenged and diminished, it also seeks to redress the balance by opening up other dimensions of Melville’s career and intellectual life and shedding new light on the broader cultural context of Jacobean Scotland and Britain.
