The Courtier and the Heretic: Leibniz, Spinoza, and the Fate of God in the Modern World
Matthew Stewart
Philosophy in the late 17th century was a dangerous business. No careerist could afford to know the reclusive philosopher Baruch de Spinoza. Gottfried Leibniz became obsessed with Spinoza's writings and called on Spinoza in person at his home. This work is a philosophical romance of attraction and repulsion, greed and virtue, religion and heresy.
