Aimed at those new to studying Spinoza, this book provides a
comprehensive introduction to his thought, placing it in its
historical and philosophical contexts, and assessing its critical
reception. In addition to providing an analysis of Spinoza's
metaphysical, epistemological, psychological, and ethical views in
the Ethics, Henry Allison also explores his political theory and
revolutionary views on the Bible, as well as his account of
Judaism, which led to the excommunication of the young Spinoza from
the Jewish community in Amsterdam. Although the book's main focus
is on the analysis of Spinoza's views, including a close reading of
the central arguments of the Ethics, it also considers many of the
standard objections to these arguments as well as possible
responses to them. This completely revised and updated new edition
of Allison's classic book, with two new chapters, will help a new
generation of students to understand and value Spinoza's work.
