Abstract

Fowler's Locke

December 2, 1880 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Locke," by Thomas Fowler. More than half of this little volume is biographical. Only a single chapter of twenty-five pages is devoted to the "Essay," while others are occupied respectively with English philosopher John Locke's opinions on religion and morals and his theological writings; the "Thoughts on Education," and the "Conduct of the Understanding"; and works on government, trade, and finance. The author has evidently read even the less known of Locke's writings with care, quotes him judiciously, seems generally in sympathy with him, and has written an extremely readable book.
