Spinoza Contra Phenomenology - French Rationalism From Cavailles to Deleuze

Zusammenfassung DRAFT to be approved by sponsor: This book shows how French philosophers in the twentieth century used Spinoza's rationalism to combat the irrationalism of phenomenology and, in the process, developed a mode of philosophical critique that was effective in targeting philosophical efforts to provide an ontological basis for political engagement.
