Question

This book imagines a mind wandering from an ongoing war to Roman pennies to illustrate what it calls a “train of thought.” Like Saint Anselm, this book references the Psalms in a passage refuting a fool who has “said in his heart” that “there is no such thing as Justice.” This book argues that we should always seek peace and keep our contracts in a list of “laws of nature.” (20[3])This book’s vision of its (20[1])title subject (0[1])as (0[1])“an (20[1])artificial (*) man, (10[1])though of greater stature… than the natural” (10[1])is literally illustrated on its frontispiece. (10[3])This book argues that (10[1])we should (10[1])form a commonwealth (10[2])under an (10[1])absolute (10[1])sovereign (10[2])to escape (10[1])a (10[1])“war of all (10[1])against all” (10[3]0[2])in which (10[1])life (10[1])is (10[1])“nasty, brutish, and short.” (10[3])For 10 points, name this magnum opus of Thomas Hobbes.
