John Locke
John Locke (1632–1704) was a man of wide intellectual interests. During the last 15 years of his life he published a series of books on a range of subjects that included politics, religion, economics and education, but in general philosophy all his energy was devoted to a single project. The Essay concerning Human Understanding, first published in 1690, is by far the most important of Locke's philosophical works. Four editions appeared during his…

On 2 July 1681 the earl of Shaftesbury was arrested and sent to the Tower, charged with high treason. As a peer he was entitled to be tried by his fellow peers, but before this could happen he would have to be indicted by a grand jury of commoners. Since an indictment could only be presented by a jury from the county in which the alleged offence had been committed, this meant that unless evidence from elsewhere were forthcoming the bill would hav…
Induction before Hume
The Novel of the American West
The origin and development of the concept of the 'laws of nature
TheIdea of explaining natural phenomena by appealing to laws of nature is one that is thoroughly familiar to the modern mind. This idea does not perhaps appear quite as natural as it did a century ago, when Engels proclaimed to the mourners at Marx's funeral that just as Darwin had discovered the law of development of organic nature so Marx had discovered the law of development of human history. Twentieth-century historians do not in general conc…
