The face depicted on the figure of Leviathan (whose body represents the 'body politic') at the top of the title is almost certainly that of Hobbes himself.Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) was born in Malmesbury, Wiltshire. His most important work of political philosophy Leviathan espouses the idea of a 'social contract' which is freely entered into between an absolute ruler and their subjects. It was his main work upon which his contemporary reputation was founded and aroused a storm of opposition. Its contents haunted political, religious, and philosophical writers for several decades, so necessary did they find it to refute Hobbes' ideas. The Roman Catholic Church placed the work on the Index of Prohibited Books for its idea that the sovereign should also act as head of the state's religion. Leviathan is the product of those troubled times leading up to and during the English Civil War. 'The State, it seemed to Hobbes, might be regarded as a great artificial monster made up of individual men, with an existence which could be traced from its generation through human reason under pressure of human needs to its destruction through civil strife proceeding from human passions. The individual (except to save his own life) should always submit to the State, because any government is better than the anarchy of the natural state' (PMM). Leviathan was written while Hobbes was resident in Paris and also tutor to the Prince of Wales. After the Restoration, he was protected by Charles II, who always retained affection for him.

The familiar heart-symbol ? -- which nowadays we ‘read’ as love [I ? New York] -- makes its first appearance as a rebus in this late medieval era, engraved on rings, where it is to be read as the noun, coer/cuer, etc. One of its earliest appearances is on a bronze ring of 13th or 14thC date in the British Museum inscribed in Lombardic capitals: A VILA MON ?
