Allegiance of Thomas Hobbes - Collins, Jeffrey R. (Assistant Professor of History, Queen's University, Canada)

Offers an interpretation of Thomas Hobbes's response to the English Revolution. By focusing of his religious thought, this work debunks the view of him as a royalist, and recovers his sympathies with the religious projects of the 1640s and 1650s. It culminates with an exploration of Hobbes's sympathies with Oliver Cromwell and his supporters.
