An unparalleled collection of original essays on Benedict de Spinoza's contributions to philosophy and his enduring legacy A Companion to Spinoza presents a panoramic view of contemporary Spinoza studies in Europe and across the Anglo-American world. Designed to stimulate fresh dialogue between the analytic and continental traditions in philosophy, this extraordinary volume brings together 53 original essays that explore Spinoza's contributions to Western philosophy and intellectual history. A diverse team of established and emerging international scholars discuss new themes and classic topics to provide a uniquely comprehensive picture of one of the most influential metaphysicians of all time. Rather than simply summarizing the body of existing scholarship, the Companion develops new ideas, examines cutting-edge scholarship, and suggests directions for future research. The text is structured around six thematically-organized sections, exploring Spinoza's life and background, his contributions to metaphysics and natural philosophy, his epistemology, politics, ethics, and aesthetics, the reception of Spinoza in the work of philosophers such as Kant, Schelling, Schopenhauer, and Hegel, and more. This unparalleled research collection combines a timely overview of the current state of research with deep coverage of Spinoza's philosophy, legacy, and influence. Part of the celebrated Blackwell Companions to Philosophy series, A Companion to Spinoza is an ideal text for advanced courses in modern philosophy, intellectual history, and the history of metaphysics, and an indispensable reference for researchers and scholars in Spinoza studies.

Eternity is a unique kind of existence that is supposed to belong to the most real being or beings. It is an existence that is not shaken by the common wear and tear of time. Over the two and half millennia history of Western philosophy we find various conceptions of eternity, yet one sharp distinction between two notions of eternity seems to run throughout this long history: eternity as timeless existence, as opposed to eternity as existence in all times. Both kinds of existence stand in sharp contrast to the coming in and out of existence of ordinary beings, like hippos, humans, and toothbrushes: were these eternally-timeless, for example, a hippo could not eat, a human could not think or laugh, and a toothbrush would be of no use. Were a hippo an eternal-everlasting creature, it would not have to bother itself with nutrition in order to extend its existence. Everlasting human beings might appear similar to us, but their mental life and patterns of behavior would most likely be very different from ours. The distinction between eternity as timelessness and eternity as everlastingness goes back to ancient philosophy, to the works of Plato and Aristotle, and even to the fragments of Parmenides' philosophical poem. In the twentieth century, it seemed to go out of favor, though one could consider as eternalists those proponents of realism in philosophy of mathematics, and those of timeless propositions in philosophy of language (i.e., propositions that are said to exist independently of the uttered sentences that convey their thought-content). However, recent developments in contemporary physics and its philosophy have provided an impetus to revive notions of eternity due to the view that time and duration might have no place in the most fundamental ontology. The importance of eternity is not limited to strictly philosophical discussions. It is a notion that also has an important role in traditional Biblical interpretation. The Tetragrammaton, the Hebrew name of God considered to be most sacred, is derived from the Hebrew verb for being, and as a result has been traditionally interpreted as denoting eternal existence (in either one of the two senses of eternity). Hence, Calvin translates the Tetragrammaton as 'l'Eternel', and Mendelssohn as 'das ewige Wesen' or 'der Ewige'. Eternity also plays a central role in contemporary South American fiction, especially in the works of J.L. Borges. The representation of eternity poses a major challenge to both literature and arts (just think about the difficulty of representing eternity in music, a thoroughly temporal art). The current volume aims at providing a history of the philosophy of eternity surrounded by a series of short essays, or reflections, on the role of eternity and its representation in literature, religion, language, liturgy, science, and music. Thus, our aim is to provide a history of philosophy as a discipline that is in constant commerce with various other domains of human inquisition and exploration.

Persistence Through Time In Spinoza written by Jason Waller and has been published by Lexington Books this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2012-08-31 with Philosophy categories.
This book concerns the nature of time and ordinary cases of persistence in Spinoza. The author argues for three major interpretive claims. First, that Spinoza is committed to an eternalist theory of time whereby all things (whether they seem to be past, present, or future) are equally real. Second, that a mode’s conatus or essence is a self-maintaining activity (not an inertial force or disposition.) Third, that modes persist through time in Spinoza’s metaphysics by having temporal parts (that is, different parts at different times.) If the author is correct, then a significant reinterpretation of Spinoza’s modal metaphysics is required. The book also puts Spinoza into dialogue with some recent work in analytic metaphysics.

From the 'Afterword as Foreword.' ...Professor Alexander has this afternoon placed his own distinctive interpretation on Spinoza's " Ethics." He has followed out this line of thought in the remarkable Gifford Lectures which he himself has recently published. Spinozism gets a fresh significance in the new atmosphere of Relativity, with which Einstein, yet another member of your community, has recently invested mathematical physics and our conception of the universe which appears to confront us. The doctrine of the space-time continuum yields a new outlook for science and philosophy alike, and Professor Alexander has seen this. I should not be candid if I did not say that for myself there seems to lie behind this conception a yet wider one, that of mind -- as I believe the principle of Relativity leaves us free to interpret it -- as being foundational to all reality. But that does not make me the less appreciative of the very important contribution which our lecturer of this afternoon has made, on this occasion as well as in his recent book, to our understanding of the meaning of what we call real. He has dealt more fully than Spinoza did with the meaning of Time as entering into the character of existence. The continuum in which it and Space have not yet been differentiated is for him the foundational fact of existence. Over this view many controversies will arise. Some of these are already well in sight. But the great point is to raise them distinctly, and this Professor Alexander has definitely done: already we have heard something of this in the address to which we have just listened, for my part, with deep interest. To this end no subject could have served better as an historical jumping-off place than the teaching of Spinoza, and this our lecturer has put before us with the freshness which we anticipated from his touch. Time received at the hands of Spinoza something less than justice. It is inseparable from Space. Apart from Space we cannot measure duration. Look at your watches and you will see why. The flight of time and its measurement are measured and made significant only by the spatial divisions through which the hands move, and which ascertain their progress. Space and Time here combine, and become phases of the yet more concrete actuality of motion or change in the relations of objects. But I did not rise to detain you. We must all desire now to go away in order that we may think over the remarkable paper to which we have listened, itself a fresh instance of the indebtedness of the public to your community for growth in ideas.
