Opis

This is the first critical edition of The Reasonableness of Christianity, John Locke's enquiry into the foundations of Christian belief, which he published anonymously in 1695. An authoritative annotated text is presented, with full information about sources, variants, amendments, and the publishing history of the work.

Recenzje

The value of critical editions of philosophical texts is now realized as never before. As a hermeneutical tool, a critical edition can establish many of the parameters of interpretation. It inevitably makes a judgment on the competing legitimacy of variant readings and, at its best, relates writers' thought to their other works, to other relevant texts, and to the broader context in which they arose. All of these results have been admirably achieved in this first critical edition of John Locke's Reasonableness.
