Description: Boston, Beacon Press, 1958. XII, 323 pp. Very good copy. Clean, no name, stamp or markings.Orig cloth with slightly damaged, priceclipped dustjacket. First Edition, First Printing. In this classic work the author undertakes to show how Spinoza's philosophical ideas, particularly his political ideas, were influenced by his underlying emotional responses to the conflicts of his time. It thus differs form most professional philosophical analyses of the philosophy of Spinoza. The author identifies and discusses three periods in the development of Spinoza's thought and shows how they were reactions to the religious, political and economic developments in the Netherlands at the time.
