David Calderwood Livres
David Calderwood fut un pasteur et historien de l'Église d'Écosse, réputé pour sa ferme opposition à l'introduction de l'épiscopat. Sa position inflexible face aux menaces et promesses royales entraîna son emprisonnement et son exil. Pendant son séjour à l'étranger, il rédigea des œuvres importantes critiquant la politique ecclésiastique. De retour en Écosse, Calderwood resta activement impliqué dans les affaires de l'Église, introduisant une tradition cruciale de protestation formelle au sein des procédures ecclésiastiques. Ses dernières années furent consacrées à la chronique de l'histoire de l'Église d'Écosse, laissant un précieux héritage historique.
