Author Name:     Hobbes, Thomas

Title:     Elementa Philosophica De Cive

Binding:     Disbound

Book Condition:     Poor with no dust jacket

Publisher:     Amsterodami [amsterdam]   Apud Danielem Elzevirium   1669

Seller ID:     003170

[xxxvi], 403 pages + [1] blank leaf. Engraved title page. 18th century calf binding. Blind-tooled pattern to boards. Dimensions of leaves: 5 1/8" by 3 1/8". Leather spine missing. Both boards detached. Some loss at corners of boards. Leather is rubbed and worn. Text block split into three sections. Foxing to title page. Owner's signature (c. 1800? ) on title page. Text is in Latin. Hobbes' greatest work "Leviathan" was first published in 1651. "De Cive" was first published in 1642 and contained earlier formulations of Hobbes' ideas about human nature and the relation between individuals and the state. Partly perhaps because "De Cive" was published in Latin rather than English, it is thought to have reached a smaller audience and had less influence than the "Leviathan". ; 24mo
