Subject: Re: pros & cons of the two Spinoza books



Little one, because -- if slow reading Spinoza alongside -- it's mostly
definitions of S's terminology (given the deleuze-spin of course).  Plus
its concluding essay 'Spinoza and Us' is one of Deleuze's best pieces of
writing.  Do the 'big' one afterwards.  Just a suggestion ...Greg
