Abstract

The essays in this volume provide a state-of-the-art overview of the central elements of Hobbes's political philosophy and the ways in which they can be interpreted. The volume's contributors offer their own interpretations of Hobbes's philosophical method, his materialism, his psychological theory and moral theory, and his views on benevolence, law and civil liberties, religion, and women. Hobbes's ideas of authorization and representation, his use of the 'state of nature', and his reply to the unjust 'Foole' are also critically analyzed. The essays will help readers to orient themselves in the complex scholarly literature while also offering groundbreaking arguments and innovative interpretations. The volume as a whole will facilitate new insights into Hobbes's political theory, enabling readers to consider key elements of his thought from multiple perspectives and to select and combine them to form their own interpretations of his political philosophy.

Abstract

Hobbes Today: Insights for the 21st Century brings together an impressive group of political philosophers, legal theorists and political scientists to investigate the many ways in which the work of Thomas Hobbes, the famed seventeenth-century English philosopher, can illuminate the political and social problems we face today. Its essays demonstrate the contemporary relevance of Hobbes' political thought on such issues as justice, human rights, public reason, international warfare, punishment, fiscal policy and the design of positive law, among others. The volume's contributors include both Hobbes specialists and philosophers bringing their expertise to consideration of Hobbes' texts for the first time. This volume will stimulate renewed interest in Hobbes studies among a new generation of thinkers.

Abstract

The Oxford Handbook of Hobbes consists of twenty-six original chapters by a group of distinguished philosophers, political theorists, historians, and literary scholars from North America and Europe. All the contributors have made substantial contributions to Hobbes scholarship, some over the course of decades. The book is divided into five parts: Logic and Natural Philosophy; Human Nature and Moral Philosophy; Political Philosophy; Religion; and History, Poetry, and Paradox. The goal of each chapter is to advance the understanding of Hobbes’s thought. The discussion in many of the chapters overlaps with discussions in others, and these overlapping discussions provide multiple perspectives on the topic. Because the authors come from several different traditions and have divergent interpretations of Hobbes, the varied perspectives help to illuminate Hobbes’s thought even when they are at odds. Several of the articles interrogate Hobbes’s texts with completely new questions, and others bring to the fore topics that have not been known or appropriately appreciated.
