\n\nLocke in the Enlightenment
\n
Call for abstracts for \;Studi Lockiani. Ricerche sull&rsquo\;età\; moderna\, issue no. 3\, year 2022. The Journal \;publishes articles\, notes\, discussions\, and reviews written in English\, Italian or French.
The volume \;Locke in the Enlightenment \;aims to present a rigorous\, innovative and interdisciplinary \;analysis of the presence of Locke&rsquo\;s ideas in the age of the Enlightenment\, considered in its cultural \;and national varieties.
Locke played a significant role in the shaping of modernity\, as a source of inspiration for both \;philosophical and political revolutions. The \;Essay \;is well acknowledged to have been at the root of \;two defining features of Enlightenment philosophy\, empiricism and scepticism. The \;Reasonableness \;prepared the ground for the prolific debate on the relationship between faith and \;reason that was fundamental to the reassessment of religion in the Enlightenment. Furthermore\, \;Locke&rsquo\;s political philosophy fostered ideas that had an impact on momentous historical events such \;as the American and French Revolutions. In general\, Locke turns out to be a recurring reference in \;the main philosophical debates of the 18th century. The aim of the volume is to reassess this issue\, \;focussing on the presence and circulation of Locke&rsquo\;s ideas in the philosophic and scientific milieu \;of the Enlightenment. We also aim to widen the scope of research\, including topics such as \;ontology\, epistemology\, philosophy of religion\, and philosophy of language. Historical studies\, \;tracing the translation and reception of Locke&rsquo\;s writings in Europe and beyond throughout the 18th \;century\, are also welcome.
\nThe volume is intended to include high-quality essays that either concentrate on existing \;discussions in the field of philosophical historiography\, or propose new interpretative paths. \;As far \;as approach and methodology are concerned\, we are equally interested in conceptual analyses of \;historical-theoretical significance\, and in detailed historical reconstructions. \; \;
\n«\;Studi Lockiani. Ricerche sull&rsquo\;età\; moderna»\; invites interested scholars to contribute. In line with \;the spirit of the Journal\, contributions are expected to provide analyses from different perspectives \;in order to shed new light on this theme.
