La representación del poder: las portadas del "De Cive" de Thomas Hobbes
Abstract
The present work tries to analyze the title-pages of the first three editions of Thomas Hobbes’s De Cive: the first Latin version printed in Paris in 1642, the second Latin edition of 1647 published in Amsterdam and the English translation that appeared in London in 1651 with the title of Philosophical Rudiments Concerning Government and Society. In doing this we want to determine if Hobbes cooperated in the design of these illustrations just as he did with the one contained in his main work: the Leviathan.Downloads
