Hobbes; Leviathan (English Version) - Odyssee

"Leviathan" is a seminal work by the English philosopher Thomas Hobbes, published in 1651 during the tumultuous period of the English Civil War. In this treatise, Hobbes presents a comprehensive and foundational political philosophy. He explores the nature of society and government, arguing that in the state of nature, humans are driven by a relentless pursuit of self-preservation and are prone to a perpetual state of conflict. To escape this condition, individuals enter into a social contract, creating a commonwealth under the rule of a sovereign authority, symbolized by the Leviathan—a powerful and unified government. Hobbes' work is a foundational text in social contract theory, examining the origins of political authority, the necessity of a strong central government, and the role of law and order in maintaining social peace.
