Thomas Hobbes
Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) was an English philosopher, scientist, and historian best known for his 1651 masterpiece *Leviathan*, which expounds social contract theory and justifies strong government authority to prevent societal chaos.[2][3][5] Influenced by the English Civil War and figures like Galileo, he developed a materialist philosophy outlined in his trilogy *De Corpore* (1655), *De Homine* (1658), and *De Cive* (1642).[1][4] In later years, he translated Homer's *Iliad* and *Odyssey* and continued writing on politics and religion.[2][6]
