Answer:
Thomas Hobbes.
Explanation:
Thomas Hobbes was born on 5 April 1588, in Westport, now part of Malmesbury in Wiltshire, England.[9] Having been born prematurely when his mother heard of the coming invasion of the Spanish Armada, Hobbes later reported that "my mother gave birth to twins: myself and fear."[10] Hobbes had a brother, Edmund, about two years older, as well as a sister named Anne.
Although Thomas Hobbes's childhood is unknown to a large extent, as is his mother's name,[11] it is known that Hobbes's father, Thomas Sr., was the vicar of both Charlton and Westport. Hobbes's father was uneducated, according to John Aubrey, Hobbes's biographer, and he "disesteemed learning."[12] Thomas Sr. was involved in a fight with the local clergy outside his church, forcing him to leave London. As a result, the family was left in the care of Thomas Sr.'s older brother, Francis, a wealthy glove manufacturer with no family of his own.
