   The Scottish Reformation ca 1525 – 1690.  Index.

The following pages about the early part of the Scottish Reformation are necessarily brief; it would require very many  more pages to tell the story in full. I hope, nevertheless, that they suffice to interest you in this fascinating period of Scottish history in which case my book “A Layman`s Guide to the Scottish Reformation” will provide much more detail.

The Reformation story begins with the contentious and unacceptable behaviour of the late medieval Catholic church, followed by the emergence of Protestant evangelism, John Knox and Presbytery. It continues with the Covenanters through to the Glorious Revolution in 1688 (accession of William & Mary), when the Presbyterian Church of Scotland was finally established by law in 1690.

NOTE: Until the end of the 16th century the Scottish year  began on the 25th of March. Some year dates are shown eg 1591/2 indicating that the event took place in 1591 by the Scottish Calendar but we would recognise as being after 1 January 1592. See Double Dates in Scotland for a detailed explanation, and date changes in the rest of Britain.

A substantial Glossary of 17C Scots usage is here.
