From Stevin to Spinoza: An Essay on Philosophy in the Seventeenth-Century Dutch Republic

by Wiep Van Bunge and L. Van Bunge

Several schools of thought that are an essential part of early modern philosophy are presented in this work. The author does not concentrate on the main authors or key-concepts that made up seventeenth-century philosophical discourse, but places the practice of philosophy in the Dutch Republic in a wide cultural context. This approach provides the opportunity to assess the emergence and early diffusion of Spinozism as a comprehensive philosophy.
