505 0  Introduction: Wars of words -- "Persecution of the tongue"
       -- "Silver alarums": Roger Williams's "meer" civility -- 
       "If it be without contention": Hobbes and civil silence --
       "A bond of mutual charity": Locke and the quest for 
       concord -- Conclusion: The virtue of mere civility -- 
       Epilogue: Free speech fundamentalism. 
520    Civility is often treated as an essential virtue in 
       liberal democracies that promise to protect diversity as 
       well as active disagreement in the public sphere. Yet the 
       fear that our tolerant society faces a crisis of 
       incivility is gaining ground. Politicians and public 
       intellectuals call for "more civility" as the solution--
       but is civility really a virtue? Or is it something more 
       sinister--a covert demand for conformity that silences 
       dissent? Mere Civility sheds light on this tension in 
       contemporary political theory and practice by examining 
       similar appeals to civility in early modern debates about 
       religious toleration. In seventeenth-century England, 
       figures as different as Roger Williams, Thomas Hobbes, and
       John Locke could agree that some restraint on the wars of 
       words and "persecution of the tongue" between sectarians 
       would be required; and yet, they recognized that the 
       prosecution of incivility was often difficult to 
       distinguish from persecution.--|cProvided by publisher.
