Description

This lecture discusses key ideas from the modern philosopher Thomas Hobbes' work Leviathan

It focuses specifically on chapter 7, where he identifies and discusses what he calls the ends of mental and verbal discourse, and clarifies when the discourse people engage in results in mere opinion or produces something more reliable that that, i.e. knowledge or science.
