Description and Table of Contents
Description
Spinoza Past and Present consists of twelve essays on Benedictus de Spinoza's Jewish background, his views on metaphysics, mathematics, religion and society. Special attention is paid to the various ways in which Spinoza's works have been interpreted from the late seventeenth century to the present day. In particular, Spinoza's recent popularity among advocates of the Radical Enlightenment is discussed: Van Bunge proposes a new interpretation of Spinoza's role in the early Dutch Enlightenment.
