Offers a detailed analysis of time, duration, and eternity from the
early Spinoza to its eventual shape in the Ethics and
Theologico-Political Treatise Constitutes the first book-length
study by one of the world's leading Spinoza scholars Offers a
systematic reading of key Spinozist concepts concerning time and
eternity Reads the concepts of time and duration positively and
affirmatively in their relation to God and eternity Closely tracks
the emergence and movement of these concepts throughout Spinoza's
work First published in 1997, and subsequently revised and reissued
in 2015, Chantal Jaquet's Sub specie aeternitatis: tude des
concepts de temps, dur e et ternit chez Spinoza is the book-version
of Jaquet's doctoral thesis, and the first of her now five
book-length publications on Spinoza. With Spinoza, Jaquet asks how
it is possible for human beings, as finite modes of existence, to
share in God's eternity, as well as how human existence relates to
the eternity of God, or Nature. This translation will allow English
readers to closely track the concepts of time, duration, and
eternity from the early Spinoza through to the last of his works.
It will also situate his thought in relation to the scholastic
philosophies that preceded him, all with close attention to the
Latin throughout.
Alexandre Matheron has worked and written substantially on Spinoza
since the publication of his influential 1969 masterpiece 'Individu
et communaute chez Spinoza' (Editions de Minuit) and he is
considered one of the most important interpreters of Spinoza's
philosophy in the 20th century. The 20 essays gathered here focus
on the themes of ontology, knowledge, politics and ethics in
Spinoza, his predecessors and his contemporaries. This is a crucial
collection for anyone seeking to understand 20th-century
continental Spinozism.
