I found his Ethics mindblowing. Never again I’ve come across anything like it.
Are rationalism and his questions so out of fashion that he is considered not relevant anymore in the current philosophical debates (whatever these may be)? Or have the critiques to his thought exposed too many mistakes? Or what? I just don’t see enough Spinoza around.
