توضیحات
What if the most terrifying thing about Hobbes wasn’t his monster — but how accurate it still is?Hobbes in Plain English is a brilliantly irreverent journey through the mind of the seventeenth century’s grumpiest genius. Stripping away the Latin, the theology, and the polite academic fog, this book explains Thomas Hobbes’s world — the fear, the logic, the social contract, and the enormous mechanical sovereign called Leviathan — in language that sounds less like a lecture and more like an uncomfortable truth.Across twenty-plus chapters of sharp, often darkly funny commentary, the book unpacks:What Hobbes really meant by the “state of nature” — and why it still looks like your social feed on a bad day.How fear became the foundation of civilization — and the business model of the modern world.Why Hobbes’s “mortal god” survives today as bureaucracy, algorithm, and government policy.How his ideas shaped Locke, Rousseau, Freud, Orwell, and every polite liberal who swore they weren’t Hobbesian.From De Cive to Leviathan, from the English Civil War to the digital age, this is Hobbes without footnotes — a complete tour of his thought, his enemies, and his surprisingly modern paranoia.It’s philosophy with teeth: lucid, skeptical, and alarmingly relevant.Because four centuries later, we still live in the world he described — only now, the Leviathan has Wi-Fi.
