| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Biographia Scoticana" by John Howie is a historical account written in the late 18th century. The work provides a detailed compilation of the lives, characters, and notable actions of eminent Scottish figures known as the "Scots Worthies," covering a period of nearly two hundred years, from early martyrs like Patrick Hamilton to more contemporary figures like James Renwick. The book aims to celebrate the faith, suffering, and virtues of these individuals in their religious and political contexts during times of persecution. The opening of "Biographia Scoticana" sets up the author's intent to shed light on the contributions and sacrifices of significant Scots who remained steadfast in their religious beliefs amidst adversity. In the Preface, Howie expresses his motivations for compiling these accounts, highlighting the need for the current generation to learn from the exemplary lives of their forebears. He acknowledges the deficiencies in historical records but insists on the utility of these biographies for edification and inspiration. The Preface also details some of the worthies featured, like Patrick Hamilton, the first Scottish martyr of the Reformation, and provides insights into the nature of their suffering for faith, framing their stories as lessons for both personal conduct and collective memory in Scotland.
