Moving beyondreductive conceptions of Locke as either central or peripheral to the developmentof Enlightenment thought, historians and philosophers explore how his writingsare invoked, exploited or distorted in eighteenth-century reflections onliberty. Analyses of his reception in England and France bring out underlyingconceptual differences between the two nations, and extend an ongoing debateabout the difficulty of characterising national political epistemologies. Thetraditional Anglocentric view of Locke and his influence is demystified, andwhat emerges is a new, more diverse vision of the reception of his politicalthinking throughout Europe.
