Leviathan
Does Hobbes think that humans are different from animals? How so?
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Hobbes' view of man was very negative and believed that man acted only in self-interest and was completely self-absorbed. This would contrast with the behavior of animals who act instinctually. Animals do certainly act for self-preservation, but man acts this way, according to Hobbes because he cares nothing about others even though he could care.
