English commentary: The author sketches "some of the ways in which the idea of religious imposture was passed down from the early sixteenth to the early eigtheenth century, concentrating on the particluar place Spinoza occupied in this essentially sceptical tradition" (p. 105), showing "the fundamental difference between Spinoza on the one hand and the libertinage and the clandestine radical enlightenment on the other" (123).
