Wim Klever’s “Locke’s Disguised Spinozism”

Wim Klever is a great scholar of Spinoza. His work over the years has traced significant influences upon Spinoza (say, by Francis van den Enden) and surprising influences of Spinoza on others. I am providing a pdf copy of a paper he recently sent me (“Locke’s Disguised Spinozism”) about Spinoza’s influence on Locke. It is a lengthy paper, and I haven’t had time to read it yet, but it surely merits the attention of scholars of early modern philosophy.

Curious about the ways humans use their minds and hearts to distract themselves from the meaninglessness of life.

    I think you’re blog prevents one from providing web links, so I’ll just mention that yesterday the Philoctetes Center (which has a web site and YouTube page) had its latest roundtable on Spinoza (including, among others, Steven Nadler). It usually takes about a week for the Center to make the videos of the roundtables available. (From the Philoctetes home page, select ‘Past Programs’.)
