More about the book
Thomas Hobbes presents a complex view of human nature, characterized by both pessimism and ambiguity. In Leviathan, he explores the idea that "Man is a wolf to man," a phrase that encapsulates his theories on human behavior and social interactions. However, this notion is often truncated, neglecting the continuation that highlights the potential for man to also be a "God" to one another. This duality is crucial for understanding Hobbes' contributions to political theory, as it reflects the intricate dynamics of human relationships and the foundations of societal structures.
