Overview

This Norton Critical Edition includes:

  • The complete text of Leviathan, one of the most important works of political philosophy ever written, carefully--and faithfully--edited for 21st-century readers. Spelling and punctuation have been thoughtfully modernized, and all archaic terms have been footnoted. The result is the most accessible edition of Leviathan available.
  • Essential background material, including Pierre Bayle's biographical assessment, Hobbes's response to criticism of Leviathan, and a selection of key critiques.
  • Six major critical interpretations by Kinch Hoekstra, Eleanor Curran, Teresa M. Bejan, Quentin Skinner, Arash Abizadeh, and Jane S. Jacquette.
  • A select glossary of words, a select glossary of proper names, a bibliography, and a note on the text.
