William Barclay (writer) : ウィキペディア英語版 | William Barclay (writer) William Barclay, M.D. (1570?–1630?) was a Scottish writer on miscellaneous subjects. ==Career== Barclay was a brother of Sir Patrick Barclay, of Towie, and was born about 1570 in Scotland. He was educated for the pursuit of medicine, but is best known by a pamphlet, printed in Edinburgh in 1614, and entitled ''Nepenthes, or the Vertues of Tobacco''. Barclay studied at Louvain under the learned Justus Lipsius, to whom he afterwards addressed several letters which have been printed, and who is recorded to have said of his pupil "that if he were dying he knew no person on earth he would leave his pen to but the doctor". To Justus Lipsius' edition of ''Tacitus'' (Paris, 1599), Barclay contributed an appendix. At Louvain he appears to have taken the degrees of M.A. and M.D. He became professor of humanity in Paris University, and after a short interval, during which he practised medicine in Scotland, returned to France to pursue his former occupation at Nantes.
