简介

Hobbes wrote the book in English while in exile in Paris during the English Civil War and published it in London in 1651; a Latin version followed in 1668. Its four parts deal with human nature, the commonwealth, a Christian commonwealth and the “kingdom of darkness”, his attack on clerical power. Chapter 13 describes life in the state of nature as “solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short”. The title comes from a sea monster in the Book of Job. The engraved title page shows a crowned giant whose body is made up of many small human figures, holding a sword and a bishop’s crozier: an image of the sovereign as the artificial person of the people.
