Hobbes' writing in debates. (The Elements of
Law, Natural and Politic, Hobbes first work).

 John Locke
John Locke, English philosopher and political theorist, was
born in 1632 in Wrington, Somerset. His work lied on the basis of
modern philosophical about empiricism, also the politic about
liberalism. In his view, Liberty and License are different. Liberty is
true freedom , it is an ability to do what is goodwhile License is false
freedom as it is an ability to do whatever ones want. He worked
much for the Enlightenment and central contributions to the
development of liberalism. He was the one who wrote Essay
Concerning Human Understanding, which shows his own theory as a
blank page with knowledge and identity arising only from
accumulated experience. His political theory of government by the
acceptation of the governed as to protect life liberty and estate. It is
true that he didn't like Tyranny but he didn't want people to do
whatever they please.For John Locke, to encroach or hurt someone
was a big mistake.
John Locke was similar to King James II of England in the
Glorious Revolution because they both were Catholic.For King
James II, he was different
from other people in the
country while in John
Locke's age, he was just a
little bit different because
Catholic was not popular at
that time. Also, he was a
lecturer at Christ Church
Oxford and an associate of
Robert Hooke, Robert Boyle
and others which were the
famous scientists of Oxford.
