| Summary | "Andrew Melville" by William Morison is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the life and contributions of Andrew Melville, a significant figure in shaping Scotland’s ecclesiastical landscape and its education system during the tumultuous period following the Reformation. It highlights Melville's fierce advocacy for Presbyterianism and his academic pursuits, which greatly impacted Scottish education. At the start of the biography, readers are introduced to Andrew Melville's profound influence in Scotland's religious and educational spheres. The introductory chapter outlines his dedication to establishing a Presbyterian system in the face of episcopal challenges, suggesting the stakes of his efforts went beyond theology, touching upon the very fabric of Scottish national identity and civil freedom. Through Melville’s early background and his subsequent scholarly journey across European universities, which laid the groundwork for his later achievements in Scotland, the narrative sets the stage for an exploration of his struggles against royal power and efforts to refine the nation's educational framework.
