Description

"The "Leviathan" is a classic of English literature. Its author was an accomplished classicist at an early age and an assistant to Francis Bacon while he was writing his "Essays". Hobbes's style shows the influence of both the ancient classics and Bacon; it also reflects the light in the merry eyes of a wit and the dead earnest of a philosopher. The work begins with the technicalities of psychology and ends with a fierce reilgious invective against "the kingdom of darkness". It was recognized at once as a powerful tract fo rthe times and also as a permanent contribution to moral philosophy." - Herbert W. Schneider

Published 1958.
