Synopsis
John Locke's 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 Locke's 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 people's views) with the most important surviving evidence from among Locke's papers relating to his political philosophy. David Wootton's wide-ranging and scholarly Introduction sets the writings in the context of their time, examines Locke's developing ideas and unorthodox Christianity, and analyzes his main arguments. The result is the first fully rounded picture of Locke's political thought in his own words.

- 5***8 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI am always a little nervous when ordering books off of eBay but this seller has provided me with an EXCELLENT purchasing experience! The packaging was superior and I am grateful because this is a signed first edition and we all know how the post office can be at times. The Shipping was timely and the item actually arrived quicker than expected. The item EXCEEDED the description. It is stunning. I have dropped it off at my antiquarian for authors signature verification but the value is high.
- l***a (3698)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller! Book arrived earlier than expected, safely packaged, and in wonderful condition, especially for a 165 year old book. The description said to expect foxing and a loose binding, but the book I received had only a few minor foxing marks and a sturdy binding with just the tiniest bit of wobble. Much better than expected --and at a great price too. Many thanks to this wonderful 5 star+ seller!Perfect Gentleman; Or, Etiquette & Eloquence by A Gentleman HC 1860 (#396112941293)
