| German commentary | Nachweis, dass John Locke gut mit Spinozas Werk vertraut und von ihm beeiflusst war, so dass die Präsenz von Spinozas Philosophie bei maßgebenden Autoren in der Grundungsphase der US-amerikanischen Staaten sowie in Gründungsdokumenten vielfach durch Locke vermittelt, aber auch direkt nachweisbar ist |
