More about the book

The book explores John Locke's pivotal defense of religious freedom amid the chaos of European religious intolerance. Historian Joseph Loconte presents a fresh analysis of Locke's "A Letter Concerning Toleration," asserting that its foundational arguments for freedom of conscience predate the secular Enlightenment. Loconte emphasizes Locke's reinterpretation of Jesus' teachings and his connection to the Christian humanist tradition, illustrating how Locke's ideas can inform contemporary discussions on religious violence and promote a more tolerant society.
