Description

Explore the deep connection between classical literature and political theory in Politics through the Iliad and the Odyssey: Hobbes writes Homer. This volume from the Routledge Studies in Social and Political Thought series examines a unique period in the life of Thomas Hobbes. Faced with censorship and limited influence in the political debates of his era, Hobbes dedicated his efforts to translating Homer's Iliad and Odyssey from Greek into English. Author Andrea Catanzaro provides a detailed analysis of the political value found within these translations. The book investigates how these literary works relate to the earlier philosophical writings of the Malmesbury philosopher. By studying these texts, readers gain a better understanding of the political and philosophical thought that shaped Hobbes' perspective. This study is an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of translation, classical epic, and the development of social and political thought.
