Description
Shop Leviatán - Thomas Hobbes and more Otros at Latinafy.comExplore the profound insights of Thomas Hobbes in his seminal work, Leviathan. Written in the wake of the tumultuous English Civil War, this text lays the groundwork for modern political theory. Hobbes employs the principles of physics and geometry to articulate a mechanistic view of social contracts and sovereignty. This edition features an extensive introduction, impressive translation, and informative notes curated by Dr. Carlos Balzi, a respected ethics professor. Delve into the mind of Hobbes and understand the pivotal concepts that shape contemporary politics.Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan, published in 1651, emerges from the shadows of the 17th-century English Civil War, offering a foundational text in the realm of modern political theory. Using the scientific paradigms of his time, Hobbes presents a mechanistic interpretation of the social contract's origin and purpose. It critically addresses the delegation of power, the proper organization of the republic, and the legitimate use of violence, all while reflecting on the historical backdrop of secularism. The concept of the 'Mortal God' introduced by Hobbes stands as a crucial element in understanding modern political dynamics, ranging from absolute monarchies to contemporary liberalism.
This edition is enriched with a comprehensive introduction, exemplary translation, and detailed notes by Dr. Carlos Balzi, a distinguished ethics professor from the National University of Córdoba. Dr. Balzi's contributions, including an appendix featuring texts from prominent thinkers such as Foucault, Voegelin, Schmitt, and Derrida, deepen the reader's engagement with Hobbes’ ideas. It’s not only a reprinting of a classic but an invitation to reflect on the ideas that have shaped political landscapes through the centuries. This is an essential read for anyone interested in the intersections of human nature, power, and governance.Usage ideas
