Calybute Downing information


Dr. Calybute Downing (1605–1643) was an English clergyman, a member of the Westminster Assembly.[1] Also a civil lawyer, he is now remembered for political views, which moved from an absolutist position in the 1630s to a justification of resistance to authority by 1640, within a contractarian setting.[2]
