Streszczenie:Integrates Spinoza’s thought into the contemporary debate on interpersonal relationships and individual autonomy13 new essays explore Spinoza’s relational account of autonomy and individualityIntegrates different philosophical approaches and styles, both from analytic and continental traditionsBridges the gap between history of philosophy and contemporary debatesContributes to debates across a number of fields, including Spinoza studies, contemporary political philosophy and ethics, feminist philosophy, and the philosophy of actionThe question of how to understand autonomy has emerged as a critical issue in contemporary political philosophy. Feminists and others argue that autonomy cannot be adequately conceived without taking into consideration the ways in which it is shaped by our relationships with others. This collection of 13 new essays shows what Baruch Spinoza can add to our understanding of the relational nature of autonomy. By offering a relational understanding of the nature of individuals centred on the role played by emotions, Spinoza offers not only historical roots for contemporary debates but also broadens the current discussion. At the same time, reading Spinoza as a theorist of relational autonomy underscores the consistency of his overall metaphysical, ethical and political project, which has been clouded by the standard rationalist interpretation of his works.ContributorsAurelia Armstrong, University of QueenslandKeith Green, East Tennessee State UniversityMatthew Kisner, University of South CarolinaMartin Lenz, University of GroningenCatriona Mackenzie, Macquarie UniversityHeidi M.
