Desire and Affect brings together leading international scholars to
provide one of the few comprehensive accounts of Spinoza's rational
psychology and its major themes and wide-ranging influence. The
papers were first presented at the third conference in the
international series, organized biannually at the Hebrew University
by the Jerusalem Spinoza Institute, and dedicated each time to one
book of the Ethics. The essays collected in this volume provide a
detailed analysis of the arguments of Book III of the Ethics and
examine the different aspects of Spinoza's psychology centered on
the concepts of desire and affect. They also include a thorough
exploration of Spinoza's account of the emotions and its relation
to the theory of conatus, his overall philosophical project, as
well as its relevance to contemporary psychology, philosophy,
economics and theology (in that context, philosopher Donald
Davidson offers his own reading of the mind/body relation in
Spinoza). The contributors include Yirmiyahu Yovel, Emilia
Giancotti, Jean-Marie Beyssade, Richard Schacht and Aaron
Ben-Ze'ev, among others.
