Spinoza, practical philosophy

Book • 1988
In this book, Gilles Deleuze delves into the philosophical works of Baruch Spinoza, particularly his Ethics.

Deleuze discusses Spinoza's concepts in detail, including his ethology rather than morality, the idea of common notions, and the distinction between ethics and morality.

Deleuze also explores Spinoza's views on consciousness, the nature of good and evil, and the importance of understanding the natural consequences of actions rather than moral prohibitions.

The book provides a comprehensive analysis of Spinoza's philosophy and its implications for ethical and ontological thought.
