Reviews
Comme le montre très bien l’introduction historique de Wiep van Bunge, s’il y a une relation entre les deux [Spinoza et Koerbagh], on ne peut pas la réduire à une simple divulgation qu’Adrian aurait faite de quelques principes du spinozisme. A light shinning se révèle être en effet un ouvrage assez original, et assez originel, nullement réductible à une anticipation du TTP [Tractatus theologico-politicus]. [...] Au contraire, elle pourrait permettre aux spinozistes de mieux comprendre à fois le milieu intellectuel dans lequel opérait Spinoza et les raisons de son originalité.
