Noel Malcolm, one of the world's leading experts on Thomas Hobbes,
presents a set of extended essays on a wide variety of aspects of
the life and work of this giant of early modern thought. Malcolm
offers a succinct introduction to Hobbes's life and thought, as a
foundation for his discussion of such topics as his political
philosophy, his theory of international relations, the development
of his mechanistic world-view, and his subversive Biblical
criticism. Several of the essays pay special attention to the
European dimensions of Hobbes's life, his sources and his
influence; the longest surveys the entire European reception of his
work from the 1640s to the 1750s. All the essays are based on a
deep knowledge of primary sources, and many present striking new
discoveries about Hobbes's life, his manuscripts, and the printing
history of his works. Aspects of Hobbes will be essential reading
not only for Hobbes specialists, but also for all those interested
in seventeenth-century intellectual history more generally, both
British and European.
