Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan, Pt. I, Ch. 13

By Steve Straub On June 2, 2011 · 13 Comments · In Thomas Hobbes

The Federalist Papers admins do a wonderful job of going through our founding documents (and sometimes others) to find pertinent, timely and always thought-provoking pieces. I have discovered a new admiration for Patrick Henry from their work! Thank you, admins! - Lisa Hoppman
