Description

Offers a radical reading of the connection between embodied life and the art of making the Commonwealth in Thomas Hobbes’s Leviathan Revises Hobbes' Leviathan to emphasise the intertwined roles of life and accountability, challenging their separation in standard interpretations of Hobbes Redefines Hobbes’s 'War of All against All' as a universal condition where individuals see others as potential enemies within a collective humanity Describes accountability as an artificial and practical concept, emerging from collective agreements and maintained through the authority of a sovereign who enforces rules and punishes violations Reconstructing the conceptual link between life and accountability, Meghan Robison presents a new account of political founding and obligation in Hobbes. Beginning from an interpretation of life as an idiosyncratic bodily motion – a motion of limbs that begins within a living body – she shows how the Commonwealth is instituted through our self‑legislated embodied practices of holding ourselves to mutually beneficial shared rules.
