ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The magnum opus of one of the great icons of modern philosophy.
A profoundly beautiful and uniquely insightful description of the universe, Baruch Spinoza’s Ethics is one of the masterpieces of Enlightenment-era philosophy.
Baruch Spinoza’s renowned work stands as a monumental achievement in Western philosophy. Written between 1661 and 1675 and first published posthumously, Spinoza's Ethics outlines his groundbreaking theories concerning the nature of God, the human mind, emotions, intellect, and liberty with a series of definitions, axioms, propositions, and corollaries. Generating immense critical acclaim, this work has been hailed by a critic as "the last indisputable Latin masterpiece"
Published shortly after his death, it is undoubtedly Spinoza’s greatest work – an elegant, fully cohesive cosmology derived from first principles, providing a coherent picture of reality, and a guide to the meaning of an ethical life. Following a logical step-by-step format, it defines in turn the nature of God, the mind, the emotions, human bondage to the emotions, and the power of understanding – moving from a consideration of the eternal, to speculate upon humanity’s place in the natural order, the nature of freedom and the path to attainable happiness.
A powerful work of elegant simplicity, the Ethics is a brilliantly insightful consideration of the possibility of redemption through intense thought and philosophical reflection.
