Finn, your Starvard guide

Ciao, mi chiamo Finn e ti aiuterò a capire questo libro.

Eccolo, spiegato come se avessi 10 anni:

Thomas Hobbes visse durante la guerra civile in Inghilterra, e voleva sapere come le persone possano vivere insieme senza farsi a pezzi. La sua risposta è un governante potente, un Leviathan, creato quando tutti accettano di obbedire a un'autorità in cambio di sicurezza. Hobbes scrive con audacia su paura, potere e natura umana, e non a tutti piacciono le sue conclusioni. È esattamente per questo che le persone discutono ancora con questo libro quasi quattro secoli dopo.
