Authority Figures uncovers the essential but largely unrecognized place of rhetoric in John Locke's political and philosophical thought. This book traces the close ties between rhetoric and experience as they form the basis for a theory and practice of judgment at the center of his work. His well known hostility to rhetoric has obscured an important debt to figural and inventive language. Recognizing this debt sets the stage for a new understanding of the Two Treatises of Government in which the material and creative force of language is necessary for political critique.
