A Recepção da Carta sobre a Tolerância de Locke

Conteúdo do artigo principal

Flavio Fontenelle Loque

Resumo

Desde que foi publicada em abril de 1689, a Carta sobre a Tolerância nunca deixou de despertar atenção. Já nos primeiros meses depois de vir a lume, ela obteve uma recepção considerável: (i) três projetos tradutórios para línguas vernáculas, (ii) duas resenhas em periódicos eruditos, atribuídas a Jean Le Clerc e Henri Basnage de Beauval, e (iii) duas críticas de clérigos ingleses, os anglicanos Thomas Long e Jonas Proast. O presente artigo se propõe a analisar essa recepção imediata e tem como finalidade avaliar em que medida a tese central da obra e as justificativas para sustentá-la foram identificadas e compreendidas.
