| German commentary | "Spinoza does not explicitly say much about women in his work, and what he says seems misogynistic. Was Spinoza really a misogynist? To respond to this question, I look at those passages wherein Spinoza mentions women and I suggest reading Spinoza as a prophet to the extent that what he says about women is more a product of the imagination than of reason, and as such, what he writes has very little, if any, philosophical truth while there may still yet be something truthful in his expression." (abstract, p. 349) |
