The English works of Thomas Hobbes of Malmesbury, Volume 01 (of 11)

The collection presents translations and editorial matter surrounding a first section of systematic philosophy that treats logic, names, propositions, syllogism, error, and method; foundational inquiries into place, time, body, accident, cause, power, identity, and quantity; and extended treatments of motion, including uniform and accelerated motion and concurrent forces. Prefatory materials, translator and author dedicatory epistles, and editorial notes frame the text and explain editorial choices. The writings aim to establish clear definitions and demonstrations, apply mathematical and physical reasoning to natural questions, and counter scholastic obscurity by grounding inquiry in observable principles and logical method.
