The leviathan is the vast unity of the State. But how are unity, peace, and security to be attained? Hobbes’ answer is sovereignty, but the resurgence of interest today in Leviathan is due less to its answers than its methods: Hobbes sees politics as a science capable of the same axiomatic approach as geometry.
Written during the turmoil of the English Civil War, Leviathan was, in Hobbes’ lifetime, publicly burnt and even condemned in Parliament as one of the causes of the Great Fire of London in 1666. Its current appeal lies not just in its elevation of politics to a science, but in its overriding concern for peace, its systematic analysis of power, and its convincing apologia for the then-emergent market society in which we still live.

I read this (or most of it - Hobbes wore out several arguments and wore me out in the process) some years ago. I wonder what sort of audiobook it makes. How, for instance, is one reading aloud to deal with the many sidenotes and glosses. To read a marginal note following immediately after the text it stands with would likely just baffle the listener a lot of the time. And the prose is not easy listening to the modern ear anyway. As I recall there are many compound and compound-complex periodic sentences, easy enough to parse when you can look back a few lines in a printed text; tricky when you have only an mp3 file.
But all these reservations show me ungratefully looking a gift horse in the mouth. Thank you ahmd.m.g; I’ll gladly download your offering and follow the argument as best I can.

Absolutely enlightening, with the text besides for the side notes and all that … Thank you.

I have not bought the book.
The language is dense and verbose to the point that it could almost stand a translation.
In any case, this book might well be the precursor to any number of “modern” movements.
