The Essential Spinoza

Designed to facilitate a thoughtful and informed reading of Spinoza's Ethics, this anthology includes the Ethics in its entirety, and Spinoza's related writings - complete or in relevant abridgment - along with two appendices: List of the Propositions from the Ethics, which helps the reader trace the development of key themes; and Citations in Proofs, a list of all the propositions, corollaries, and scholia in the Ethics, together with all the definitions, axioms, propositions, corollaries, and scholia to which Spinoza refers in the proofs - thus, readers can locate, for a given item, each instance where Spinoza refers to it.
