English commentary: "This study focuses on Spinoza's ontology of activity, which brings together central features such as the concepts of conatus, power, and adequate causation... The first (methodological criterion) is chronological... The second half of the study (§§3-4) ... considers three main direct sources as particularly decisive in framing Spinoza's thought, namely, Descartes, Hobbes, and Boyle." (abstract, p. 9)
