Winkler, Sean:
The Problem of Generation and Destruction in Spinoza's System

In: Journal of Early Modern Studies 5, 1 (2016), 89-113

Literature type: Articles
Language: English
Thematic areas: Metaphysics / ontology
Subject: E

English commentary: "Formal essences are relations that specify how finite individuals will behave once they come into existence, while existent modes are individuals that express the relations defined by formal essences, as forces that possess a capacity to act and to be acted upon. According to these distinctions, I maintain that it is possible to develop a coherent account of contrariety and, consequently, of generation and destruction in Spinoza’s system." (from the abstract)
