Literatursorte: Aufsätze
Sprache: englisch
Sachgebiete: Metaphysik / Ontologie
Kommentar deutsch: "One vesting strand of Spinozism asserts that God's nature is more expansive then traditionally conceived and includes properties like being extended. In this paper, I argue that prominent early moderns embrace metaphysical principles about causation, mental representation, and modality that pressure their advocates towars such an extensive account of God's nature in similar ways. I further argue that the main early modern escape route, captures in notions like "eminent containment", fails to adequately relieve the metaphysical pressures toward Spinozism. The upshot is that those sympathetic with these early modern projects must embrace a costier option if they are to successfully escape the orbit of Spinoza." (abstract)
