La primera de las libertades reivindicadas en la época moderna fue la libertad religiosa, que dentro de la dialéctica del pensamiento liberal puede considerarse no sólo como la primera en el tiempo, sino también como la raíz del desarrollo de las demás libertades. A su vez, en el seno de la idea de la libertad religiosa, la Carta sobre la Tolerancia de John Locke, publicada por primera vez en 1689 y 1690, marca un hito de primer rango. Se trata de uno de esos libros breves que, al igual que El Príncipe de Maquiavelo o el Manifiesto del Partido Comunista de Marx y Engels, están destinados a ejercer una decisiva influencia histórica. Aparte de su significación universal, la Carta es altamente representativa del pensamiento político inglés en una de las etapas más interesantes de su historia.

Work Description

A Letter Concerning Toleration by John Locke was originally published in 1689. Its initial publication was in Latin, and it was immediately translated into other languages. Locke's work appeared amidst a fear that Catholicism might be taking over England, and responds to the problem of religion and government by proposing religious toleration as the answer. This "letter" is addressed to an anonymous "Honored Sir": this was actually Locke's close friend Philipp van Limborch, who published it without Locke's knowledge. (Source: Wikipedia)
