This is in line with his self-assessment. Indeed, he prides himself that he is the first to have established political philosophy. According to Hobbes's account of the advancement of science, with the only exception of geomentry, the beginning of science is not older than Copernicus, who founded astronomy. It was Galileo who first "opened to us the gate of natural philosophy universal" (Corp : ep. ded., 1, v/ix), while "the science of man's body, the most profitable part of natural science, was first discovered... by our countryman Doctor Harvey" (ibid.). Natural Philosophy is therefore but young ; but Civil Philosophy yet much younger, as being no older... than my own book De Cive. (ibid.). But as the title of this paper shows, my concern is Hobbes's moral and political philosophy. In fact, much of this paper will be devoted to the discussion as to his moral philosophy. This is because I believe that if we make clear what his moral philosophy is, then we also elucidate what his political philosophy is by comparison. By moral, as distinguished from political, philosophy I roughly mean such a theory of good, right and other related values, as is independent of political authority. Does Hobbes have moral philosophy in this sense of the term? If he has any, what is it like and how is it related to his political philosophy? These are my concerns. I shall argue that Hobbes has moral philosophy ; and that his moral philosophy is characterized as a theory of man, while his political philosophy as a theory of citizen. However, before turning to these issues, we need to be clear about Hobbes's view on philosophy in general.}, pages = {33--57}, title = {Man and Citizen : Hobbes's Moral and Political Philosophy}, volume = {48}, year = {1997} }
