The Correspondence of John Locke [Book Review]

Review of Metaphysics 37 (2):394-396 (1983)

Abstract

This seventh of the eight volumes in E. S. de Beer's superb edition of Locke's extant correspondence covers the period 27 January, 1700, through 14 May, 1703. Of the approximately 620 letters included, some 190 are from Locke. Of these almost two thirds are letters to his cousin and financial agent Peter King. The letters are in English, French, or Latin. Those in Latin are translated, quite ably, if with occasional misprints. The enormously helpful editorial materials of the first volume are, of course, not repeated. But the editor does provide, economically and unobtrusively, a great deal of needed assistance of a textual, biographical, background, or cross-referential sort.
