The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, by recovering the historical atmosphere in which Locke lived, the aim is to show that his thought was very much influenced by the general context of England during the second half of the seventeenth century. Second, after analyzing the context that shaped his Essay on Tolerance & his Letter on Tolerance, & the main differences between both works, a brief analysis of Locke's complex concept of property in his second Treatise will follow. It will be argued that a different reading of property that takes into account the broader classical meaning of "propriety," which would be consistent with Locke's definition of what he terms by the 'general name' of property ('Lives, Liberties & Estates'), could entail individual liberty in religious matters. If this interpretation is feasible, i.e., if Locke's concept of propriety could comprise freedom of consciousness in religious matters, then Locke's civil society should necessarily entail tolerance. 18 References.

Las experiencias coloniales de Inglaterra y Francia en América entre los siglos XVI y XVIII estuvieron signadas por una rivalidad con España de alcances religiosos, políticos y económicos. Franceses e ingleses diseñaron estrategias de dominio y modelos de ocupación en territorios periféricos del Imperio español que auguraban posibilidades de expansión geográfica y control colonial. Una de las estrategias privilegiadas en esta competencia ultramarina fueron las representaciones que a través de los relatos de viaje se hicieron con el objetivo de difundir y promover la presencia de dichas potencias en los contornos del mundo colonial ibérico. A partir del análisis de una serie de relatos de viaje publicados en este período, se intentará demostrar que a pesar de los cambiantes escenarios que posibilitaron -o no- la presencia colonial concreta de Francia e Inglaterra en América, fue en los libros que la disputa por el Nuevo Mundo tuvo un desarrollo progresivo, resultando un instrumento cada vez más eficaz para "poner en evidencia los atropellos de España" y justificar de esta forma las ambiciones coloniales de estas potencias. En función de lo antedicho, en el caso inglés serán analizadas las narrativas de viaje relativas al asentamiento de Roanoke (1584-1586), el derrotero de Anthony Knivet por el Atlántico Sur (1591-1603) y el viaje a tierras patagónicas de George Shelvocke (1719-1722). En el caso de Francia serán abordados los relatos de viaje producidos a raíz de las experiencias protestantes en Florida y Brasil en el siglo XVI y su primer viaje de circunnavegación en 1766. ; Throughout the XVIth and XVIIIth centuries, English and French colonial expansion was marked by a rivalry with Spain of religious, political and economic extent. England and France designed strategies and patterns of settlement in the margins of the Spanish Empire that, beyond Spanish control, would enable geographic expansion and colonial occupation. Anti-Spanish accounts in travel narratives thus became one of the strategies used to promote the presence of such colonial powers in marginal areas of the colonial Iberian world. A detailed analysis of some of the narratives published in this period by both England and France suggests that whether the priority was the installation of strategic bases in America, the control of commercial routes, the development of religious settlements or the organization of expeditions of a more scientific and commercial approach, the struggle for the New World by means of the printed text was the best instrument to condemn the abuses of Spain and thus justify the colonial ambitions of England and France. Given this objective, the attempt to settle in Roanoke, the voyages of Anthony Knivet to the South Atlantic and the voyage to patagonic lands made by George Shelvocke (1719-22) will be analyzed for the English case. Regarding the French, special attention will be paid to the protestant projects in Florida and Brazil and the first French voyage around the world in 1766.

At the beginning of the 17th century, England initiates the decisive colonization of North America, being the conversion of natives to Christianity one of its leading objectives. It does it through authorizations that king grants to trading companies, as the London's which founds Virginia, or land concessions which he benefits with nobles, as Lord Baltimore who creates Maryland. The new establishments build its political system on the institutions of the governor and his Council and the Assembly, and its laws take special interest in guaranteeing and strengthening a specific official declared religion, as it happens in Virginia with the Anglican Church, although in other exceptional cases, they undertake more ambitious tasks, as it occurs in Maryland, determined to establish religious tolerance to protect the Catholic community.

This is not really an essay on comparative literature. By using the artcraft of both the Irish writer Oscar Wilde and the Cuban Reinaldo Arenas we tried to advance some ideas and analysis on freedom and the impact of social environment on their creations. The article is aimed to prove how our notion of freedom is always behind, social, political and ideological frames and how they are tightly intertwined in contemporary society. Freedom and Poetry, Freedon and Existence and other issues are discussed in a piece of work which is now a part of a major project dealing also with possible evocations between the Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector and the British writer Virginia Woolf. ; Este no es en realidad un ensayo sobre literatura comparada. Utilizando como excusa el arte del escritor irlandés Oscar Wilde y el del cubano Reinaldo Arenas, intentamos proponer algunas ideas y análisis sobre la libertad y el impacto que han tenido sus creaciones sobre el medio social. El artículo aspira a demostrar cómo los esquemas sociales, políticos e ideológicos están estrechamente relacionados con nuestra noción de libertad en la sociedad contemporánea. La Poesía y la Libertad, la Poesía y la Existencia son algunos de los temas abordados en un trabajo que ya es parte de un texto mayor, en el cual se intenta también establecer posibles relaciones entre la escritora brasileña Clarice Lispector y la inglesa Virginia Woolf.

Este trabajo estudia el funcionamiento del catolicismo en Gibraltar y Menorca una vez que pasaron al dominio de Inglaterra. La investigación presenta como innovación el análisis conjunto de ambos territorios en los que los hispanos tuvieron que convivir con la religión anglicana y con unas autoridades británicas interesadas en impedir la jurisdicción de la jerarquía eclesiástica. El texto se ha estructurado en varios apartados en los que se examina la situación en que quedaron los lugares sagrados (iglesias, conventos y ermitas) tras la ocupación anglosajona, se revisa la práctica de la fe católica en el contexto de ambigüedad del denominado «libre ejercicio de la religión» acordado en Utrecht, se detectan los obstáculos impuestos por el poder civil y militar a las potestades jurisdiccionales de los obispos de Mallorca y Cádiz, y se atiende al posicionamiento que tuvo la Santa Sede respecto a los procedimientos utilizados por los gobernantes ingleses ; This work studies the functioning of Catholicism in Gibraltar and Menorca once they came under the rule of England. The research presents as an innovation the joint analysis of both territories in which Hispanics had to coexist with the Anglican religion and with British authorities interested in obstructing the jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. The text has been structured in several sections in which the situation in which the sacred places (churches, convents and hermitages) remained after the Anglo-Saxon occupation is examined, the practice of the Catholic faith is reviewed in the context of ambiguity of the so-called «free exercise of religion» agreed in Utrecht, the obstacles imposed by the civil and military power to the jurisdictional powers of the bishops of Mallorca and Cádiz are detected, and the position that the Holy See had regarding the procedures used by the English rulers.

This essay analyzes why John Gower set the "Tale of the Three Questions," the concluding story in Book I of the Confessio Amantis, in Spain. Written during a time of intense parliamentary concerns over money apparently wasted by Richard II's uncles on military campaigns against Castille-Leon, the tale argues tar the relevance of Spain to England and for the relevance of poetic counsel in domestic politics. The question of Spain in English politics in the 1380s offered Gower a way into debates among the magnates and parliaments of England by evoking past and present Anglo-Castilian relationships. He imagines a situation in which the strategy of good counsel works, suggesting a more acceptable set of choices: alliance and realignment instead of the absolutism of either conquest or avoidance.
