Description
"This Norton Critical Edition begins with Paul E. Sigmund's comprehensive introduction to the volume, which provides readers with biographical background and a history of the interpretation of Locke's writings, giving particular attention to the ideologically influenced debates of the last fifty years. Locke's most important political writings - The Two Treatises of Government (The First Treatise generously excerpted; The Second Treatise complete) and A Letter Concerning Toleration - are accompanied by explanatory annotations. The Selected Political Writings of John Locke is the only student edition available that includes, in addition to Locke's political texts, selections from his ethical, epistemological, and religious writings - Essay on the Law of Nature, An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, and The Reasonableness of Christianity." ""Sources" includes writings by the major political theorists who influenced Locke. Twenty-one "Interpretations," judiciously chosen from the thousands of books and articles on Locke's political writings, have been thematically organized to allow students to explore the full range of Locke's influence on political and social controversies and developments."--BOOK JACKET.
