The turn of the millennium has been marked by new developments in the study of early modern philosophy. In particular, the philosophy of René Descartes has been reinterpreted in a number of important and exciting ways, specifically concerning his work on the mind-body union, the connection between objective and formal reality, and his status as a moral philosopher. These fresh interpretations have coincided with a renewed interest in overlooked parts of the Cartesian corpus and a sustained focus on the similarities between Descartes thought and the philosophy of Baruch Spinoza.
Mind, Body, and Morality
consists of fifteen chapters written by scholars who have contributed significantly to the new turn in Descartes and Spinoza scholarship. The volume is divided into three parts. The first group of chapters examines different metaphysical and epistemological problems raised by the Cartesian mind-body union. Part II investigates Descartes and Spinozas understanding of the relations between ideas, knowledge, and reality. Special emphasis is put on Spinozas conception of the relation between activity and passivity. Finally, the last part explores different aspects of Descartes moral philosophy, connecting his views to important predecessors, Augustine and Abelard, and comparing them to Spinoza.
