    摘要、提要註: What does it mean to be tolerant? Does tolerance entail open-mindedness or grudging forbearance? How is it possible to accommodate those who are themselves intolerant, or who profess loyalty to an alien set of laws? And how can tolerance be reconciled with both religious truth and secularity? This collection of essays by ten leading scholars of history, English literature and political science addresses these questions in the context of both early modern and contemporary England and America. Placing highly topical debates in vital historical perspective, the essays explore issues of difference and diversity, inclusion and exclusion, and faith and the state in relation to a variety of Christian groups, Jews and Muslims. They examine how far concepts of religious liberty have really evolved from that foundational era, how to distinguish between a comparative historical and a teleological approach to the history of tolerance, and how enduring problems of religious disharmony can be illuminated by early modern comparisons and contrasts.
