A Treatise of Civil Power was published by the English poet and polemicist John Milton in February 1659. The work argues over the definition and nature of heresy and free thought, and Milton tries to convince the new English Parliament to further his cause. The work is addressed the work to the Lord Protector Richard Cromwell. Milton expresses his belief that an individual's conscience was more important than any external factors or forces, advocating freedom of religion or the ability of people to voluntarily choose their own religious affiliation. In context, he opposed any form of state religion.
