# John Locke The first fact about Locke is a printed exclusion and a plantation board, not a marble liberal. Gutenberg Letter at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/23772 prints Catholics and atheists outside the proposed peace. SEP toleration at https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/locke-toleration/ and political philosophy at https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/locke-political/ mark limits. Two Treatises at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/7370 and the Essay at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/10615 are 1689 public books as later English. Britannica at https://www.britannica.com/biography/John-Locke prints the Board. TNA at https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ catalogues plantation-adjacent papers. Cambridge Companion at https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/cambridge-companion-to-locke/ treats debates. The offsets are also URLs. Bodleian at https://www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/ holds papers. SEP main entry at https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/locke/ and IEP at https://iep.utm.edu/locke/ are independent. NPG at https://www.npg.org.uk/ is a public face. What the score must not say: that he wrote every Carolina clause as unique autograph; that 1689 HTML is 1689 type; that Board minutes are a unique slave ledger; that toleration has no printed holes. Complex contribution is the honest type. Confidence is high on the printed Letter/Treatises/Essay and on the Board date, medium on unique Carolina authorship, low on unique later-empire coefficients. Related people are Shaftesbury, Newton, Masham, later editors. 1689 is a cluster of books on different days. 1696 is an office. 2001 is SEP. The useful question is which later public pages still move exclusions, consent-talk, and plantation office under his name. Keep Letter Treatises Board and Carolina on separate dates. Remaining dated instruments kept after dropping later editions, museums, and split rows: 1689-01-08 The Letter prints political distrust of Catholics and of atheists as completed exclusion-reasons; 1669-01-01 Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina print hereditary rank and slavery clauses of disputed Locke drafting-weight; 1696-05-15 Board of Trade service is a completed colonial-administrative office; 1696-01-01 Locke joins the 1690s recoinage debate as a completed monetary heading; 1679-01-01 Shaftesbury service in the exclusion-era faction is a completed polarising office; 1684-01-01 Christ Church expulsion and Dutch exile are a completed forced absence; 1696-06-01 Board papers sit inside a completed plantation-governance file; 1689-01-01 A Letter Concerning Toleration is a completed public argument that also excludes Catholics and atheists; 1689-01-15 Two Treatises of Government print consent, property, resistance, and just-war slavery as one book; 1689-12-01 An Essay Concerning Human Understanding is a completed public philosophy book. Later Loeb, UNESCO, and encyclopedia pages are evidence, not additional acts. This catalog keeps only instruments dated to the lifetime (or received lifetime date) of John Locke. Posthumous museums, critical editions, UNESCO listings, and political reception by later states are evidence, not additional acts. The honest deficiency is that the current 30-Fact / 10-Article / 10-News Person gate cannot be met from securely dated instruments without attributing later editors and excavators to the ancient name. Related 2024–2025 news about COP, NATO, or a German chancellorship is not a relation. ## Dated facts - 1700: The Essay’s fourth edition enlarges the chapter Of Identity and Diversity. https://factrail.ai/facts/jlk-essay-identity-1700.
