We've had some lovely reviews in recently of Michael Mack's Spinoza and the Specters of Modernity and I thought I'd do a quick post to show them off!
In Common Ground, the magazine for the Council of Christians and Jews, Canon Theologian of Westminster Abbey Dr Nicholas Sagovsky said:
“For anyone like me brought up on the Enlightenment thought of Descartes and Kant, there is usually a vague awareness of an alternative tradition which throws the certainties of Modernity into question. Michael Mack illuminated that tradition through his study of the way Spinoza influenced a series of questioning thinkers such as Herder, Goethe, George Eliot and Freud. It’s a fascinating and stimulating read.”
Read the full review here on page 23.
Any readers who speak Italian might also want to check out the discussions of the book on the Foglio Spinoziano blog and there's also an article in Dutch here.
