http://www.rc.umd.edu/cstahmer/cogsci/hobbes.html

Extractions: Overview: Leviathan is short on physiological detail as to the inner-workings of the mind, but Hobbes' ideas provide the conceptual background for the major schools of thinking about thinking which follow in the next two centuries -particularly the skeptics and associationists . The text presents itself as a mediating step between Burton and Locke . It expands and sharpens many of Burton's ideas about categories of thought and, as Locke will later do, bases a total socio-political philosophy upon them. The Model: Hobbes' model is based upon an application of the rules of geometry and physics to the human sciences. Hobbes professed, first and foremost, a theory of motion. Following the theories of Galileo (whom he visited in Europe) he believed that, contrary to the opinion of his day, all matter was in motion and would remain in motion unless acted upon by another force. Based upon this philosophy, Hobbes constructs a model of the human psyche in which all thought is explained by the motion of things in the material world impacting the senses, which creates a subsequent motion in the senses , which creates a subsequent motion in the brain, which continues to exert its pressure on the brain until its motion is degraded sufficiently by the interference of other new motions. Three fundamental premises underlie this model: 1) that everything is material, including the mind, and the soul (689-693); 2) that we are brought into the world with the mind a

Extractions: MIA Encyclopedia of Marxism : Glossary of People Hobbes, Thomas (1588-1679) Hobbes took as his starting point Bacon's principle that all knowledge comes from the senses: "There is no conception in a man's mind which hath not at first, totally or by parts, been begotten upon the organs of sense. The rest are derived from that original" ( Leviathan ). Memory and imagination are like the ripples which continue on after the initial distrubance has ended. While Hobbes points out that what is given in the senses is not equal to what is "pressing upon" the sense organs, he accepts that by means of sensation, we gain knowledge of the objects in the material world. [Interestingly, Hobbes accepts the Biblical story of God telling Adam the names of the animals, and speculates on how language develops from that beginning]. He also advises that this knowledge will fall into error either due to inexperience, which can be corrected by further experience so long as the limitations of experience are attended to, or due to lack of adherence to formal logic in developing knowledge from the initial definitions of things. Hobbes was 21 when Bacon's Natural History for the Building Up of Philosophy was published in 1609, and Hobbes was in touch with Bacon from 1619 till Bacon's death in 1626. Hobbes visited Galileo in Florence in 1636,and he received Descartes'

http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/Philosophy/Hobbes.htm

Extractions: [Hobbesian Quotes] There is nothing in the background of Hobbes that would have marked him as one that was to become one of history's bright political lights. I know not what happened to his mother, but his father ran off after he struck a fellow clergyman at the church door; the point is that Hobbes was raised by his uncle. His brilliance as a child was spotted by those who could advance him in life and arrangements were made for him to attend Oxford University (Magdalen Hall). The Aristotelianism doctrine that prevailed at Oxford during these times "nauseated Hobbes"; he turned to materialism . Materialism was nothing new: it was a widely held system of thought first developed by the early Greeks, such as Epicurus and the proponents of Stoicism At the age of 15, Hobbes was taken on by a rich and influential Cavendish family, as a tutor. It was a fortunate appointment for young Hobbes as the family had a "superb library" and connections to certain other leading lights of the age, whom he was to meet, including Francis Bacon (1561-1626) and Galileo Hobbes' interest in science, particularly that of

He that is to govern a whole nation must read in himself, not this, or that particular man; but mankind: which though it be hard to do, harder than to learn any language or science; yet, when I shall have set down my own reading orderly and perspicuously, the pains left another will be only to consider if he also find not the same in himself. For this kind of doctrine admitteth no other demonstration. THE FIRST PART OF SENSE CONCERNING the thoughts of man, I will consider them first singly, and afterwards in train or dependence upon one another. Singly, they are every one a representation or appearance of some quality, or other accident of a body without us, which is commonly called an object. Which object worketh on the eyes, ears, and other parts of man's body, and by diversity of working produceth diversity of appearances.

Extractions: Thomas Hobbes is best known for his book Leviathan Hobbes' perspective on human nature was pessimistic and he argued that the natural state of human affairs was one of constant struggle and violence - something which a strong government is able to overcome. Thus, he argued that obedience even to an arbitrary and unpleasant government is necessary to avoid the even greater evils of chaos and anarchy - the war of "every man against every man" which would exist in nature without the state. Also as a result, his description of the functions of the state are based on how it can achieve those goals. Hobbes is also well known for the fact that he based his analysis of human nature on purely materialistic premises, refusing to resort to any divine agency in order to explain why humans act the way they do. According to Hobbes, "the Universe, that is the whole mass of things that are, is corporeal, that is to say body." The whole universe was treated as a great machine, and he did not feel the need to assume the existence of any "ghost in the machine, as did Descartes. He thus argued for a form of determinism in human conduct, although he accepted a form of compatibilism between deterministic nature and human free will.

London, Andrew Crooke, 1655 8vo (171x 110 mm), pp [xii] 304, with 13 engraved plates, some folding; very light waterstain to last two gatherings, a fine, unpressed copy in contemporary vellum, lettered in ink on spine. £22,500 First edition of Hobbes' foundation work on materialist science and philosophy, a work inspired by his meetings with Galileo and Mersenne. Hobbes sought to give a formal account of the first principles of science, based on the new science of motion. Hobbes 'also met Gassendi and Roberval; he read Descartes, and everywhere he went, he meditated on the problems of motion, which he conceived to be the principle by which a wholly material universe is to be understood' (DSB). He also claimed to solve several long-standing problems in geometry, notably the quadrature of the circle. The work was attacked by Wallis, igniting a bitter dispute which was to last until Hobbes' death. Hobbes held to a strict materialism in which only body is truly real and all else is to be explained as the consequence of the motion and impact of bodies (thus De corpore, which treats the nature of body, is the foundational work of the Hobbesian system). In particular, Hobbes rejects Euclidean notions such as the definition of a line as 'length without breadth', and insists on the notion of a line as the path traced out by a moving body. Chapters 12-14 of De Corpore are his attempt to construct an account of quantities, ratios and figures consistent with his materialism, while Chapters 15-19 are intended to exploit this account in the investigation of motion and the determination of ratios between magnitudes. Chapter 20 contains his application of this conception of mathematics to the problem of squaring the circle.

(1) Mais il n'a pas, chez Machivel, en lui-même de quoi fonder un ordre politique nouveau. Avec Hobbes au contraire, le peuple (non comme la partie du corps politique distincte des grands, mais comme la généralité des hommes qui ne veulent pas vivre dans la peur) va prendre l'initiative politique. Les hommes vont vouloir être satisfaits, ils vont savoir comment on obtient cette satisfaction. Pour être satisfaits, ils vont devenr intelligents. politique Or dans son effort pour détacher le peuple de la tutelle romaine, le monarque avait dû prendre appui sur les "représentants". Le problème religieux fournit aux représentants de la Chambre des Communes l'occasion, la tentation et le moyen de définir le corps politique du roi et contre Quelles sont, selon Hobbes, les causes de la guerre civile anglaise ? (3) Il y a pour lui une cause profane l'influence des Universités, qui magnifient des modèles grecs ou romains, la "liberté" ; et une cause religieuse celle des presbytériens ou puritains, qui appartiennent davantage au peuple et qui attribuent à chacun le droit et le devoir d'écouter l"'inspiration" individuelle, le droit et le devoir de "dogmatiser".

Extractions: Hobbes, Thomas 1588-1679, English philosopher, grad. Magdalen College, Oxford, 1608. For many years a tutor in the Cavendish family, Hobbes took great interest in mathematics, physics, and the contemporary rationalism. On journeys to the Continent he established friendly relations with many learned men, including Galileo and Gassendi. In 1640, after his political writings had brought him into disfavor with the parliamentarians, he went to France (where he was tutor to the exiled Prince Charles). His work, however, aroused the antagonism of the English group in France, and his thorough materialism offended the churchmen, so that in 1651 he felt impelled to return to England, where he was able to live peacefully. Among his important works, which appeared in several revisions under different titles (see Sir W. Molesworth's edition of the complete works, 11 vol., 1839-45), are De Cive Leviathan De Corpore Politico De Homine (1658), and
