Widely regarded as the "Father of Liberalism," John Locke was an English philosopher and physician whose writings profoundly influenced the Enlightenment and the founders of the United States. His theories on natural rights, government by consent, and the social contract were revolutionary. Educated in medicine and philosophy at Oxford, Locke's firsthand experience with political turmoil in 17th-century England shaped his belief that reason and tolerance are essential for a just society, a foundation he laid for modern democratic thought.
