Oxford University Press - Thomas Hobbes: Leviathan Edition

Experience one of the most important philosophical texts in the English language with this definitive edition of Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan. Published by Oxford University Press as part of the Clarendon Edition of the Works of Thomas Hobbes, this volume represents the first critical edition based on a full study of the manuscript and printing history. This edition provides a unique reading experience by placing the original English text side by side with Hobbes's later Latin version. To ensure clarity, the text includes a set of notes where passages that differ in the Latin version are translated into English. This allows readers to see the development of the work clearly for the first time, making it an essential resource for students and scholars of political philosophy.
