内容説明

Tracing key biblical topics recurrent in Grotian and Hobbesian discourses on the church-state relationship, The Sovereign and the Prophets examines Spinoza's Old Testament interpretation in the Theologico-political Treatise and elucidates his effort to establish what Hobbes could not adequately offer to the Dutch: the liberty to philosophize. Fukuoka develops an original method for understanding seventeenth-century biblical arguments as a shared political paradigm. Her in-depth analysis reveals the discourses that converged on the question, 'Who stands immediately under God to mediate His will to the people?' This subtly nuanced theme not only linked major theoreticians diachronically-from the Remonstrants such as Grotius to the anti-Hobbesian jurist Ulrik Huber (1636-1694)-but also synchronically built the axis of resonances and dissonances between Leviathan and the Theologico-political Treatise.
