German commentary | Untersucht die verschiedenen Quellen über eine frühe, verloren gegangene Verteidigungsschrift Spinozas zu seiner Verbannung aus der Synagoge mit dem Ergebnis, dass die Befunde "uns Gründe dafür geben, zu glauben, dass sie nicht weit von der Wahrheit entfernt waren." (S. 32). |
English commentary | Examines the diverse sources about an early, but lost apology of Spinoza on his being excommunicated from the synagoge, resulting in the judgement that they "give us reason to believe that they were not far from the truth." (p. 32). |
