Sumario:: In Leviathan, Hobbes's journey to an understanding of the political includes a double register. On the one hand, there are argumentative developments and strictly conceptual definitions. On the other, a set of analogies, grandiloquent expressions and highly imaginative narratives. If one chooses to attribute some explanatory effectiveness, and not merely rhetorical, to the non-strictly geometric moments of the text, the adjusted reading must assume the task of reconciling the presence of images and statements that, at first glance, appear to be opposed, or, at least, non confluent. The hypothesis of this paper is that the challenges in reconciling the various elements offered by Hobbes are a deliberate hint that points to suggesting the incomprehensible complexity of the nature of statehood.
