Apologie de Barclay (édition de 1797)
Robert Barclay, célèbre quaker, né en 1648 en Écosse, d'une famille riche et ancienne, mort en 1690.
Il embrassa en 1666 ainsi que son père, la doctrine des quakers ; se lia étroitement avec William Penn ; voyagea en Angleterre, en Hollande et en Allemagne, pour inciter des adhésions au quakerisme ; et écrivit plusieurs ouvrages dont le plus connu est l’Apologie de la véritable théologie chrétienne, telle que la professent ceux que par dérision on appelle Quakers, publiée à Amsterdam en 1676, en latin, et dédiée au roi Charles II d'Angleterre ; traduite en français en 1702.
