Hebrew-language coverage of Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan, part of the Leviathan Library series published by Shalem Press
Edited by Menachem Lorberbaum Translated by Aharon Amir
“The publication of Leviathan in Hebrew compels Israeli readers--the beneficiaries of those Zionists who dreamed of, and succeeded in, establishing a modern Jewish state--to reflect on the meaning of sovereignty, the conditions required for its success, and the dangers inherent in it. All this, beyond the sheer pleasure of reading an intrinsically beautiful work.”
“The Hebrew translation of Leviathan is, above all, an act of tremendous tenacity.”
“The book... is a masterpiece of political philosophy”
