This illustration is taken from the original etching in Thomas Hobbes’ Leviathan of 1651. Palgrave Macmillan and the editors are grateful to Lucila MuñozSanchez and Monika Sniegs for their help in redesigning the original to illustrate what ‘transformations of the state’ might mean. The inscription at the top of the original frontispiece reads ‘Non est potestas Super Terram quae Comparetur ei’ ( Job 41.24): ‘there is no power on earth which can be compared to him’. In the Bible, this refers to the seamonster, Leviathan. (Original Leviathan image reprinted courtesy of the British Library.)
