Challenging conventional interpretations, this work presents Spinoza as a profound materialist rather than a Cartesian or liberal thinker. It explores his concept of the materiality of writing, particularly through scripture, and outlines three core principles: the interdependence of mind and body liberation, the necessity of collective freedom, and the corporeal existence of written propositions. The book encourages a reevaluation of Spinoza's impact by shifting focus from intellectual comprehension to the tangible effects of his philosophy on both minds and bodies.
