Spinoza and the Stoics by Firmin Debrabander

Examines Spinoza's moral and political philosophy and his engagement with Stoicism. This book explores the problematic view of the relationship between ethics and politics that Spinoza apparently inherited from the Stoics and in so doing asks some important questions that contribute to a crucial contemporary debate.
'Although the link between Spinoza and Stoicism has been explored to a certain extent.. DeBrabander's is the first book-length study. As such it cannot be valued too highly... this is an interesting and stimulating book, and one any student of Spinoza should read.' Theo Verbeek, University of Utrecht - for Notre Dame Philosophy Review, Nov 10, 2007
Firmin DeBrabander is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the Maryland Institute College of Art, USA.
