Thomas Hobbes is one of the first great modern philosophers. In
particular, his version of the social contract theory has proved to
be one of the enduring intellectual achievements of modern
political and moral thought.
This dictionary provides a comprehensive and cohesive expository
account of about one hundred and fifty key concepts covering the
entire range of Hobbes's thought, from philosophy, political theory
and science, to theology, history and mathematics. Extensively
cross-referenced, the volume also includes a biography of Hobbes, a
chronology of Hobbes's life and works, a chronology of historical
events in the early and mid-seventeenth century, and an annotated
bibliography of Hobbes's major works, contemporary editions, and
main secondary literature.
This volume will be indispensable for students and researchers
interested in Hobbes's life and thought.
Each Blackwell Philosopher Dictionary presents the life and work
of an individual philosopher in a scholarly yet accessible manner.
Entries cover key ideas and thoughts, as well as the main themes of
the philosopher's work. A comprehensive biographical sketch is also
included.
