The common methodological attitude that most, if not all, of these studies reflect is the commitment to a bottom-up reconstruction of Spinoza's philosophy, where Spinoza's text is both the point of departure and the constant touchstone against which any interpretation must be evaluated. Across four key parts, Melamed traces diachronically the development of key concepts of Spinoza's metaphysics, discusses key problems at the core of his metaphysics, examines the connection between Spinoza's substance monism and the philosophy of the ancient Eleatics, and conducts a historical study of Spinoza's debt to the Kabbalah.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yitzhak Y.
