Book Description
America’s Philosopher examines how John Locke has been interpreted, reinterpreted, and misinterpreted over three centuries of American history. The influence of polymath philosopher John Locke (1632–1704) can still be found in a dizzying range of fields, as his writings touch on issues of identity, republicanism, and the nature of knowledge itself. Claire Rydell Arcenas’s new book tells the story of Americans’ longstanding yet ever-mutable obsession with this English thinker’s ideas, a saga whose most recent manifestations have found the so-called Father of Liberalism held up as a right-wing icon. The first book to detail Locke’s trans-Atlantic influence from the eighteenth century until today, America’s Philosopher shows how and why interpretations of his ideas have captivated Americans in ways few other philosophers—from any nation—ever have. As Arcenas makes clear, each generation has essentially remade Locke in its own image, taking inspiration and transmuting his ideas to suit the needs of the particular historical moment. Drawing from a host of vernacular sources to illuminate Locke’s often contradictory impact on American daily and intellectual life from before the Revolutionary War to the present, Arcenas delivers a pathbreaking work in the history of ideas.

Book Description
Excerpt from An Oration, Pronounced Before the Citizens of Bangor: On the Fourth of July, 1838, the Sixty-Second Anniversary of American Independence Fellow Citizens: - I congratulate you on the sixty-second anniversary of American Independence. In discharging the duty assigned to me on this occasion, I am happy to meet an assembly like this, convened on the broad ground of American citizenship. Other grounds and other interests have been made too prominent, of late years, in the celebration of this day. The day belongs not to any partial interest or single cause, however sacred in itself. It belongs to the American citizen - a name, an interest which includes all others and transcends all others. The day is national, and strictly national should our celebration of it be. Other interests shall have their due. Education, Temperance - the whole year shall be theirs; but on this day we will know only our country, we will consider only those great principles of national polity which have made our country what it is; and through which alone we can hope to maintain what we are and have.
