Spinoza: A Guide for the Perplexed by Charles Jarrett
Requirements: PDF Reader, 1.1 MB
Overview: Benedict de Spinoza is a major philosopher of enduring influence and importance, whose work is encountered by all serious students of Western philosophy; his Ethics is one of the seminal works of moral, religious and political thought. Nevertheless, Spinoza is a considerable challenge for the modern student; his language, rooted in the vocabulary of late Medieval scholasticism is frequently opaque, while the esoteric themes explored in his work often require elucidation. Spinoza: A Guide for the Perplexed provides that elucidation, offering a thorough account and analysis of Spinoza’s key works and overall philosophical project. The text equips the reader with the necessary means to draw full and clear understanding from Spinoza’s often inaccessible language and complex philosophical system and method. His Ethics and political treatises are covered in detail; Spinoza’s ‘geometrical’ approach to his subject is opened up, and his obscure terminology fully explained. The book concludes with a valuable assessment of Spinoza’s enduring influence and his relevance for contemporary philosophical debates and concerns. It is an excellent support resource for anyone trying to get to grips with this challenging and important philosopher.
