This book approaches Hobbes's philosophy from a completely new
perspective: his creativity. Creativity is the production of
something which experts consider to be original, valuable and of
high quality. James Hamilton explores Hobbes's creativity by
focusing on his development, personality, and motivation in the
context of his culture and environment, and on the ways in which he
thought creatively, as inferred from his writings. Identification
of the ideas which Hobbes drew upon is an important part of the
study for two reasons. First, they are necessary to determine which
of Hobbes's ideas and theories are original and which are not.
Second, analysis of his creativity requires an understanding of the
ideas from which he drew. Hamilton concludes that Hobbes became a
great philosopher because of his creative virtuosity.
