摘　　要：随着15世纪中期现代印刷机的发明,新闻出版自由问题浮出水面。与以往论点不同,本文认为,新闻出版自由的思想可以追溯到清教徒的良心自由。其后,约翰·弥尔顿从神学视角论证了新闻出版自由的必要性,因神学观所限,其出版自由观充满矛盾,而新闻出版自由的世俗化,是在霍布斯、洛克和斯宾诺莎的共同努力下,逐步得以确立的。Issues in the freedom of the press emerged in mid-15 century as modem printing press was invented.This article,differing from other arguments,argues that the thought of the freedom of the press can be dated back to the liberty of conscience of the Puritans.Subsequently,John Milton demonstrated the importance of freedom of press from the theology.Limited by his theology,his views are full of contradictions.The secularization of the freedom of the press is established by Hobbes,Locke and Spinoza.
