The Works Of John Locke

This bibliography is a comprehensive listing of published works by John Locke, including all known editions and translations of his works, abridgments and selections in anthologies and several works which he edited or translated, from the first editions to the present. It covers not only the works published during Locke's lifetime, but also those printed from the voluminous manuscripts he left behind at his death in 1704.

In addition, Locke's works are set in their original controversial context: entries are provided for the works Locke wrote about and for the attacks and defenses his writings provoked during and immediately following his lifetime. An appendix contains a list of works incorrectly attributed to Locke.

Three indexes complete the bibliography: an index to the names of the editors, the translators, and authors of works cited in the annotations; an index to the titles of anonymous works; and a language index that lists all the works that have been translated into each language. Review: .,. Attig's work gives thorough, comprehensive coverage of the various edition of those [Locke's] writings, including incorrect or doubtful attributions.

Informative and interesting notes have been provided for each work; annotations accurately refer to earlier general and specialized bibliographies and indicate unverified citations. There are excellent language, title, and name indexes; the last makes it convenient to find translations and prefatory or editorial work done on Locke by a wide range of scholars.

It is a very fine bibliography.... -CHOICE
