Originally published in 2007, Taming the Leviathan is a wide-ranging study of the English reception of Hobbes's ideas. In the first book-length treatment of the topic for over forty years, Jon Parkin follows the fate of Hobbes's texts (particularly Leviathan) and the development of his controversial reputation during the seventeenth century, revealing the stakes in the critical discussion of the philosopher and his ideas. Revising the traditional view that Hobbes was simply rejected by his contemporaries, Parkin demonstrates that Hobbes's work was too useful for them to ignore, but too radical to leave unchallenged. His texts therefore had to be controlled, their lessons absorbed and their author discredited. In other words the Leviathan had to be tamed. Taming the Leviathan significantly revised our understanding of the role of Hobbes and Hobbism in seventeenth-century England. 410 0$aIdeas in context ;$v82. 606 $aPolitical science$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aChristianity and politics$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government$y1603-1714 615 0$aPolitical science$xHistory 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory 676 $a320.1092 700 $aParkin$b Jon$g(Jonathan Bruce),$f1969-$01626792 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828608103321 996 $aTaming the Leviathan$93963036 997 $aUNINA
