This book offers a detailed analysis of John Locke's case for
toleration and proposes an interpretation that shows the links
between his political reasoning and his reflection on the ethics of
belief. Locke is concerned with toleration not only when he
discusses the ends of the Commonwealth, but also when he assesses
the duties of private persons regarding the search for truth. The
purpose of this book is to shed light on both of these branches,
which have not been sufficiently explored in other studies on
Locke. With particular attention to the notions of charity,
obstinacy, fallibility, reciprocity and distinction between belief
and knowledge, the author proposes a reading of the Epistola de
Tolerantia, an extensive discussion of the controversy between
Locke and Jonas Proast, as well as an examination of An Essay
Concerning Human Understanding, in order to establish the meaning
and interconnection of Locke's arguments in favour of toleration.
