![]() This hypothesis ignores the fact that humans are born and maintained in community. It is assumed that the state of nature is an anti-social condition marred by malice. This reading of sovereignty endeavors to arrest the political volatilities of the hypothetical state of nature. In Hobbes’ words: the Essence of the common-wealth which (to define it,) is One Person, of whose Acts a great Multitude, by mutuall Covenants one with another, have made themselves every one the Author, to the end he may use the strength and means of them all, as he shall think expedient, for their Peace and Common Defence. Such an argument links the performance of sovereignty to a notion of government. Hobbes’s view of sovereignty is dependent on the formation of the absolute state. In Leviathan ( 1982), Thomas Hobbes posits a structural approach, which provides an allegorical postulation of the foundation of state sovereignty.

I’m not someone who takes delight in negativity, and even if i’m not in love with a book, i’m usually able to find something neutral and deflecting to say about it, or at the very least, i'm able to suggest the correct audience for it, in that “people who enjoy _ will find much to appreciate in this book &yadda" way.

No more than five tweet entries, over the course of the three weeks, will be accepted, and those should be spaced out, not done on the same day. That will only annoy people, not make them interested in the book. Tweeting it 40 times a day doesn’t earn you 80 entries. That said, I don’t support or authorize spamming. And any creative idea you come up with, I’ll handle on a case-by-case basis, and assign a number of entries at that time. Like dressing up as a character from the book, putting on a sandwich board and walking around Times Square all day? I’d give 100 for that.

A l’instar de son contemporain, Shakespeare a lui aussi recours de temps en temps aux termes architecturaux comme des références en soi, mais semble s’intéresser assez peu à la ville réelle ou aux villes créées dans ses pièces. Dans Doctor Faustus (B) il dessine avec expertise la topographie d’une Rome lumineuse et splendide, détaillant ses principales caractéristiques à l’aide du vocabulaire architectural en vogue (site, situation, plan, ériger). Que pensait Shakespeare de la ville ? Dans Tamburlaine, Marlowe s’attache aux structures poétiques modelées sur l’architecture du monde, utilisant la toute nouvelle carte d’Ortelius lorsqu’il décrit les détails géographiques du monde réel. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Even for a novelization of a movie, that’s pretty unusual.
