Zusammenfassung:An exhaustive account of the Spinoza-Machiavelli relationship and its relevance for contemporary philosophyThe first translation into English of this exhaustive account of the Spinoza-Machiavelli relationship and its relevance for contemporary philosophyProvides a thorough overview of the Machiavellian texts available to Spinoza in his library, and an analysis of Machiavellian arguments throughout Spinoza's textDevelops the complex relationship between ontology and politics, as distinct from political ontologyFocuses on the concepts of causality, temporality and politicsLeads to an understanding of history as a complex and plural interweaving of necessarily contingent eventsVittorio Morfino draws out the implications of the dynamic Spinoza-Machiavelli encounter by focusing on the concepts of causality, temporality and politics. This allows him to think through the relationship between ontology and politics, leading to an understanding of history as a complex and plural interweaving of different rhythms.This extraordinary book opens up new avenues for understanding both Machiavelli and Spinoza as well as early modern political philosophy and materialism
