La treizieme des "Lettres sur les Anglais" porte sur Locke et la question de l'ame. La premiere version de la "Lettre sur Locke" - qui fait l'objet du present volume - est ecartee par Voltaire des "Lettres sur les Anglais" en 1733 a cause de ses audaces quasi-materialistes qui risquaient d'entrainer la censure de l'ensemble de l'ouvrage, et elle est remplacee par la version edulcoree que nous connaissons aujourd'hui en tant que Lettre 13. Voltaire reprend la premiere version en 1736 et developpe la comparaison entre l'homme et l'animal, vers l'affirmation d'un lien essentiel entre l''organisation' des corps et leurs proprietes cognitives. La "Lettre" lui echappe alors et connait une circulation manuscrite et de nombreuses editions au cours du dix-huitieme siecle. Elle jouera un role important dans l'emergence de la pensee materialiste au coeur des Lumieres francaises.
