Locke: Political Writings: John Locke by John Locke (English) Paperback Book

Description: Locke: Political Writings by John Locke, David Wootton Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description John Lockes Second Treatise of Government (c. 1681) is perhaps the key founding liberal text. A Letter Concerning Toleration, written in 1685 (a year when a Catholic monarch came to the throne of England and Louis XVI unleashed a reign of terror against Protestants in France), is a classic defense of religious freedom. Yet many of Lockes other writings--not least the Constitutions of Carolina, which he helped draft--are almost defiantly anti-liberal in outlook. This comprehensive collection brings together the main published works (excluding polemical attacks on other peoples views) with the most important surviving evidence from among Lockes papers relating to his political philosophy. David Woottons wide-ranging and scholarly Introduction sets the writings in the context of their time, examines Lockes developing ideas and unorthodox Christianity, and analyzes his main arguments. The result is the first fully rounded picture of Lockes political thought in his own words.
