English commentary: The picture of Spinoza as an atheist in the 17th century, as a pantheist in the 18th century, on the definition of 'pantheisms', Spinoza's notion of the relation God-world.
"Spinoza did not elevate nature into the divine. On the contrary, he reduced the divine to nature - he naturalized God - in the hope of diminishing the power of the passions and superstitious beliefs to which the traditional and even untraditional conceptions of God give rise." (p. 253)
