English commentary | "In the first two sections of this essay, I show how Spinoza's severe ontology is at odds with his commitment to the general ethical program. In the third section, I try to explain why [...] 'Spinoza's ethical program has been historically less influential than the ethical theories of such other early modern philosophers as Hume and Kant'." (p. 88) |
