John Locke was born in Wrington, Somerset, England in 1632. His father was a lawyer and justice of the peace who fought on behalf of the parliamentary side against Charles I. Locke had a good education , he learned Hebrew and Arabic at Westminster School, then went to Oxford University where he began not only to question, but also to strongly disagree with scholastic philosophy taught. After receiving his master's degree, he began lecturing at Oxford in Greek and Latin. From there, he was eventually offered the position of Censor of Moral Philosophy in 1664. After the death of Locke's father, this allowed him some freedom, given that his father had left him a large inheritance that would make him financially independent. Around the same time, he also began to meet other like-minded men, such as Isaac Newton, Robert Boyle and Thomas Sydenham. Sydenham was very influential in Locke's desire to become a doctor, although he never practiced in the typical manner of medicine, he was very competent and soon took up the position of supervising Lord Ashley's operation, Earl of Shaftesbury for an infected cyst on his liver. He even drained the wound with a silver tube. For his services, the earl was very gracious and became a long-time supporter of Locke's philosophical views and efforts. In addition to helping Shaftesbury with his medical problem, he also began to address his political needs. This was evident in some of the various government appointments offered to Locke, due to his relationship with the Earl. In fact, he strongly supported Locke's appointment to the Royal Society in 1688. Additionally, during some of his political service to the earl, he drafted a constitution for the British colony Caro...... middle paper.... ...ha sawed the musket. All of them are used for propaganda purposes, to fight for rights and not to surrender to an unjust government. The parallel with Locke, the father of liberalism, prevails in the smallest symbolic measures. For Locke believed that the idea that kings had the right to dive because they were direct descendants of Adam was ridiculous. There was no possible way to trace that kings were directly descended from Adam, and there was no real clarification, adding that human beings had both female and male parents, and that political power was fundamentally different from patriarchal power. To drive the point home, he then explained, in the Two Treatises, that human beings were peaceful, with the exception of a few criminals. Ensuring justice in sanctions was necessary for governments, but it was only a convenience added to a generally functional and satisfactory situation..
