This volume makes available for the first time critical editions of
John Locke's A Vindication and A Second Vindication of the
Reasonableness of Christianity, in which Locke defends his
interpretation of the New Testament and of the Christian Religion
against charges of heterodoxy. These works contribute greatly to
our understanding of Locke's Christian commitments, which it is now
recognized played an important role in shaping his philosophical
opinions; they also demonstrate his sophistication as a biblical
scholar, and the breadth of his theological learning. The texts are
accompanied by a historical introduction explaining the origin of
the works and setting them in context. In addition to a textual
introduction and critical apparatus, editorial notes help to
clarify the text. The volume also includes a French translation and
abridgment by Pierre Coste, a Huguenot scholar, who was patronized
by Locke and worked on his translations while residing in Locke's
household. This definitive edition is an important contribution to
an understanding of the development of modern enlightened Christian
attitudes.
