Synopsis
Published shortly after his death in 1677, Ethics is undoubtedly Spinoza’s greatest work—a fully cohesive philosophical system that strives to provide a coherent picture of reality and to comprehend the meaning of an ethical life. Following a logical step-by-step format, it defines in turn the nature of God, the mind, human bondage to the emotions, and the power of understanding, moving from a consideration of the eternal to speculate upon humanity’s place in the natural order, freedom, and the path to attainable happiness. A powerful work of elegant simplicity, Ethics is a brilliantly insightful consideration of the possibility of redemption through intense thought and philosophical reflection. First time in Penguin Classics Edwin Curley's translation is considered definitive Inlcudes an introduction outlining Spinoza's philosophy and placing it in context

About Librería y Editorial Renacimiento
El fondo se incrementó notablemente con la compra, en 1995, de la librería neoyorquina de Eliseo Torres, de más de un millón de volúmenes (literatura española e hispanoamericana, crítica literaria, exilio español, historia, arte, Galicia, etc.). Tras esta compra, aunque se mantiene la tienda sevillana en Mateos Gago, 27, el almacén de la librería se traslada a una nave industrial de las afueras.
