Rafael Winkler argues that the key to dethroning the human subject-a standing problem in contemporary continental thought-lies in Spinoza's conception of substance as being causally and explanatorily self-sufficient, his necessitarianism and actualism, and in the immanence of substance to its finite modes. By conducting this close reading of Spinoza's Ethics (together with his \u003ci\u003eTreatise on the Emendation of the Intellect\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTheological-Political Treatise\u003c\/i\u003e), the author also clarifies some of the key concepts and arguments in Spinoza's work for experienced and junior scholars of philosophy, as well as a wider audience interested in Spinoza's psychology, ethics, and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRafael Winkler \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor in the Department of Philosophy, University of Johannesburg, South Africa.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 April 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9798216276920\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17.76\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51944992112780,"sku":"9798216276920","price":103.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9798216276920","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
