Thomas Hobbes is arguably one of the greatest of all English
philosophers. In the second half of the 20th century, he has been
subject to sustained critical attention. He was capable of powerful
argument on virtually any plane, whether logical, scriptural or
historical. And he has attracted attention in all these areas and
more - to do with questions of historical method, language and
linguistics, metaphysics, ethics, law, politics, science and
religion. Hobbes has been attended to from a great variety of
perspectives - as an ethical positivist and a deontologist, as a
bourgeois advocate and a supporter of the aristocracy, as an
absolutist and a proponent of parliamentary government, as a
"conservative" and a "modern", as an atheist and a believer. The
periodical literature on Hobbes is accordingly varied, but it is
also difficult to access. The four volumes of these critical
assessments conveniently assemble an important array of material.
This ready availability should prove helpful to all students of
Hobbes.
