The Political Theology of Leviathan
Winded up the foundation of the political power through the derivation of the sovereign power’s rights by the principles of human nature, in the third part of “ Leviathan”, Hobbes confronts himself to the question around the connection between the State and Revelation. In this way is it possible to see a second foundation of the State, essentially based on the Holy Scripture and tending to carry out a theological foundation of the power capable of supporting the hermeneutic monopoly of the Scripture by civil power and at the same time of demolishing the darkness kingdom occupied by ethereal creatures as spiritual essences.
