This article is about the biblical creature. For appearances of the biblical creature in popular culture, see Leviathan in popular culture. For other uses of the term, see Leviathan (disambiguation). For the book, see Leviathan (Hobbes book). For the Arabian cosmological creature, see Kujata. For the prehistoric whale, see Livyatan. The Destruction of Leviathan by Gustave Dor (1865) Leviathan (/l??va?.???n/; ?????????, L?v?y???n) is a creature with the form of a sea serpent noted in theology and mythology. It is referenced in several books of the Hebrew Bible, including Psalms, the Book of Job, the Book of Isaiah, and the Book of Amos; it is also mentioned in the Book of Enoch. The Leviathan is a demonic dragon, often threatening to eat the damned after life and an embodiment of chaos. In the end, it is annihilated. Christian theologians identified Leviathan with the demon of the deadly sin envy. According to the Ophite diagram, the Leviathan encapsulates the space of the material world. The Leviathan of the Book of Job is a reflection of the older Canaanite Lotan, a primeval monster defeated by the god Baal Hadad. Parallels to the role of Mesopotamian Tiamat defeated by Marduk have long been drawn in comparative mythology, as have been wider comparisons to dragon and world serpent narratives such as Indra slaying Vrtra or Thor slaying J rmungandr.[1] Leviathan also figures in the Hebrew Bible as a metaphor for a powerful enemy, notably Babylon (Isaiah 27:1). Some 19th century scholars pragmatically interpreted it as referring to large aquatic creatures, such as the crocodile.[2] The word later came to be used as a term for great whale, and for sea monsters in general.

Written during the chaos of the English Civil War, Thomas Hobbes Leviathan asks how, in a world of violence and horror, can we stop ourselves from descending into anarchy? Hobbes case for a common-wealth under a powerful sovereign – or Leviathan – to enforce security and the rule of law, shocked his contemporaries, and his book was publicly burnt for sedition the moment it was published. But his penetrating work of political philosophy – now fully revised and with a new introduction for this edition – opened up questions about the nature of statecraft and society that influenced governments across the world.

ABOUT LEVIATHAN During the time men live without a common Power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called Warre Written during the turmoil of the English Civil War, Leviathan is an ambitious and highly original work of political philosophy. Claiming that man s essential nature is competitive and selfish, Hobbes formulates the case for a powerful sovereign or Leviathan to enforce peace and the law, substituting security for the anarchic freedom he believed human beings would otherwise experience. This worldview shocked many of Hobbes s contemporaries, and his work was publicly burnt for sedition and blasphemy when it was first published. But in his rejection of Aristotle s view of man as a naturally social being, and in his painstaking analysis of the ways in which society can and should function, Hobbes opened up a whole new world of political science. Based on the original 1651 text, this edition incorporates Hobbes s own corrections, while also retaining the original spelling and punctuation, to read with vividness and clarity. C. B. Macpherson s introduction elucidates one of the most fascinating works of modern philosophy for the general reader.
