Andrew Melville
Andrew Melville (1 August 1545 – 1622) was a Scottish scholar, theologian, poet and religious reformer.
His fame encouraged scholars from the European continent to study at Glasgow and St. Andrews.
He was born at Baldovie, on 1 August 1545, the youngest son of Richard Melville of Baldovie, and Geills, daughter of Thomas Abercrombie of Montrose.
He was educated at the Grammar School, Montrose, and University of St Andrews.
He later went to France in 1564, and studied law at Poitiers.
He became regent in the College of Marceon, and took part in the defence of Poitiers against the Huguenots.
He then proceeded to Geneva, where he was appointed Professor of Humanity.
He returned to Scotland in 1574 and was appointed Principal of the University of Glasgow in autumn of that year.
He did much to establish the
University on a proper footing and founded four Chairs in Languages, Science and Philosophy.
He was admitted as minister of Govan in conjunction 13 July 1577.
Melville was elected Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland on 24 April 1578.
He opposed the Episcopal tendency in the Church, and did much to establish the Presbyterian form of government.
He further did much to remodel the Scottish Universities, especially St Andrews; St Mary's thereafter being devoted to Divinity, Melville being appointed Principal thereof in November 1580.
He was again elected Moderator of the General Assembly 24 April and 27 June 1582, and 20 June 1587.
In the Assembly of October 1581, he took an active part in the libel against Robert Montgomery, Bishop of Glasgow, for simoniacal practices.
Melville was appointed on a commission to wait upon James VI.
in 1582, with a remonstrance and petition which, notwithstanding the entreaties of his friends, he presented.
On 15 February 1584 he was summoned before the Privy Council for alleged treason in a sermon preached at St Andrews the June previous, and ordered to be imprisoned at Blackness, but his friends assisted him to escape to England.
On Arran's fall he returned to Scotland and was restored by Parliament at Linlithgow in December 1585.
In 1590 he became rector of the University of St Andrews, which office he held until 1597, and at the coronation of the Queen, 17 May 1590, he recited a Latin poem, the "Stephaniskion".
He was again appointed Moderator of the General Assembly, 7 May 1594, but on a visitation of the University by the King in June 1597, he was deprived of his rectorship.
He attended the General Assembly at Dundee, March 1598,
but was ordered to withdraw by the King.
In 1599 he was appointed Dean of the Faculty of Theology.
He caused the Synod of Fife in 1599 to censure certain propositions in the Basilieon Doron by the King.
At the Assembly at Montrose in March 1600 he unsuccessfully claimed his right to sit, but was successful in that at Burntisland May 1601.
He took part in that held at Aberdeen in 1605 and offered, with others, a protest to Parliament at Perth in 1606 in favour of the right of free Assembly.
For this he was summoned with others to London, where he was cited before the English Privy Council for writing a bitter Latin epigram against the accessories of Anglican worship and placed under the custody of John Overal, D.D., Dean of St Paul's, and afterwards of Bilson, Bishop of Winchester.
Again brought before the Privy Council, he broke into a violent tirade against that Court and was committed to solitary confinement in the Tower.
Henri de la Tour, Duke de Bouillon, having obtained his release, appointed him to the Chair of Biblical Theology in the University of Sedan, and Melville embarked for France 19 April 1611.
