Abstract
Students of intellectual history establish a clear line of connection from Newton and Locke through the philosophy of the Enlightenment and the evolution of deism to the American political tradition reflected in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. This paper briefly traces the historical sequence and indicates readily available sources (mostly in paperback) in which students and lecturers can find deeper background and additional detail.
