Review # 1 was written on 2019-03-25 00:00:00 Debbie Schebell Hobbes' Leviathan is a beast who has multiple organs. It is a mortal God. Hobbes thinks that in state of war everyone is against the other and they fight relentlessly. In order to restore peace and security, subjects must make a covenant with their sovereign and obey the rules that issued by it. This agreement will provide the subjects with peace and security. Leviathan is actually is a mortal God. Even though Hobbes tried to reconcile Christianity with New Science of then just as Saint Aquinas did it between revealed Christianity and Aristotle, he historically failed to succeed. Unlike what he intended he served the secularization of sovereignty.
