The main assumption of this book is that Locke’s methaphysical considerations spread throughout his works build a coherent metaphysical theory about the essence of things. Contrary to prevalent opinions, Locke thereby proves to be a philosopher who not only criticised the metaphysical systems of the late scholasticism, but also advanced them in a very interesting way.

Western philosophy: Medieval & Renaissance, c 500 to c 1600 --- John Locke --- metaphysics --- essence --- identity --- philosophy of language
