Full textAccording to Spinoza, conditions to attain freedom and happiness depend on duration; in other words, since there is nothing beyond death, they are attainable while the unity of body and mind endures. Any effort to acquire knowledge through reason and intuition must be effected within the system of affects. This entails studying said system in connection with the three temporal coordinates constituting affectivity: 1. The fact that mode (the individual) must achieve adequacy to solve the difference between the infinite number of ideas and his or her limited capacity to simultaneously form ideas clearly and distinctly (attributive simultaneity and difference); 2. The conflict itself between activity and passivity constitutes the body; and, 3. This constitution turns the individual into a desiring individual (one who desires), “subject” to passions when his or her power diminishes

Full textSpinoza makes a distinction between the concepts of duration, eternity and time throughout his entire work. He starts off by assuming that any essence (that is the intelligible) is an eternal truth, necessarily true, which bears no relation to time. Eternity, which is not infinite, is defined by the existence that necessarily follows from an essence and duration by the existence that does not meet this condition. Now, according to his study on Descartes and to letter 12, only the unique absolutely infinite being is eternal, the existence of none of his effects being necessarily connected to an essence. On the other hand, in the ethics, apart from god, eternity is attributed to all infinite modes but also to finite modes such as the souls of all singular things insofar as their existence is conceived to follow solely from the definition of an eternal thing. Most importantly, the distinction between duration and time is always conceived in the same manner. If duration is something real and positive, outside of thought, time presupposes thinking beings. It is a mere appendage to imagination which helps us determine duration

Full textWhat is liberation according to Spinoza? How does he demonstrate it in his work Ethics? A jumping off point for answering that question is to examine the relationship between mind and body in Spinoza, and demonstrate how the nature of that relationship makes the liberation of man possible as established by Spinoza in Ethics. Incidentally, the project of a man's liberation in Spinoza begins with the liberation of man from his affective life. Thus, we must examine the ontological basis of man's emotions in order to explain them in the same causal order that determines body and mind. But Spinoza does not only seek to answer the question of the existential mystery behind the realisation of our existential liberation, he also seeks to pave the way towards a metaphysical liberation, to lay the ontological foundation for the emotional life of man. This analysis will consist of demonstrating that the concept of conatus is essential to the new concept of liberation as espoused by Spinoza. Here, conatus is the manifestation of a necessary and immanent cause, which is God, in the existence of the determination of every being in nature. Thus, the hypothesis at work here is the link between Spinoza's concept of liberation and the realisation of our existential conatus

Most obvious are the problems of relationship between living and non-living, mind and body, error en truth. Spinoza's philosophy, although from 17th century, offers solutions to these problems more relevant than most more recent philosophies. In return, present knowledge from physical and biological sciences, especially cognitive neurosciences, can provide a new look at some specifically Spinozist notions such as his "little physics", Nature as cause of itself, the notion of matter, the essence of a thing, kinds of knowledge, which gain all the more interest from a present day point of view

Laux, Henri. "Imagination et religion chez Spinoza." Paris 1, 1991. http://www.theses.fr/1991PA010576.
Full textIt is a matter of identifying the complex of forces produced by the encounter between the imagination and religion, and thereby to characterize the socio-historical power of the imagination. The analysis of prophecy, and that of the mircale, manifest in revelation an ethic of social integration, and in the miracle the theorical-pratical essence of the religious in its greatest exteriority. At this point, when the effects of desintegration appear constitutive of religion, the logic of the chapter 7 of the itp intervenes : this chapter does not constitute an autonomous treaty of exegetical technique, it elaborates the rules which make possible the transition from an externalized religion to a religion not yet philosophical but freed from its enslaving practices ; thus it provides the methodology of a refoundation of interindividuality. After having reconstructed the ethical system of religion starting from a selection of affects, one demonstrates thus how, thanks to this new way of reading scripture, the delivrance from servitude is accomplished from within religion, in the relationship of the individual to the foundational text of his beliefs. The result is an actual, or differential, social integration. Revealed religions participate very diversely in the constitution of this power, christ being the most useful model for the ethical affirmation of the individual. In conclusion : for having shown the modalities of the readibility of reality, spinoza is a philosopher of historicity
Stilianou, Aristotelis. "Histoire et politique chez Spinoza." Paris 1, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA010504.
Full textThe aim of this thesis is the study of the relation between the theory f history and the political theory in Spinoza's philosophical system. The first part is considers some constituent elements of Spinoza's theory of history : the universal history, the sacred history and the political history. The second part deals with the way Spinoza uses history for political purposes by analysing the history of nations and states, historical examples and the political consequences of his readings of historians. The last part proceeds with the study of the relationship between Spinoza's political philosophy and his theory of history. The conclusion of the thesis is that Spinoza was very interested in historical problems when he elaborated his theory on history, precisely at a time when the focus was not on historical questions. Moreover, his modern concept of historical progress and his original political views are the evidence of the topicality of Spinoza's political thought and the practical character of his philosophy
BELLE, WANGUE SAM THERESE. "Violence et societe chez spinoza." Toulouse 2, 1991. http://www.theses.fr/1991TOU20059.
Full textIn spinoza, rationalist naturalism gives violence an ontological foundation and makes it relative on the anthropological plane. This apparent paradox appears with no connection to the nominalism of imaginary transcendency, to the elitist isolating process of superstitious singularity and to the individualization of the law. When violence is exploited in the theologico-political perspective, it carries passive and affective reciprocity to the point of delirium, within the absolute productivity of substance. What is original and topical in spinoza is his hard fight against deductive formalism of the various expressions of violence as political "foolishness". This political inertia is of a varied nature : general social inequality, the dogmatic control of thinking and speech by the state, the use of secrecy for the reason of state, the effortless capitalization by corruption, monopolization of collective powers by a tiny group. The implicit critic of the debt between the states is not without a connection to the acknowlegment of international anarchy. Besides political action proper, the solution to violence lies in two systems of liberation : progressive democratization by educating and promoting - however a rare case- the rational community of free men; which is genuine justice of true philosophical life. Nonetheless, for the greatest possible number of citizens, the strategy of the management of sad affects would not fail to integrate violence in political rationality

Full textOur objective in this study is to examine Spinoza’s theory of truth and certainty. The goal being to highlight the meaning and range of the spinozist thesis as expressed by the formula: "truth is the standard both of itself and of the false". We first determined the spinozist concept of truth through the analysis of adequacy (extrinsic property of true idea). We have shown of agreement (extrinsic property of true idea). We have shown that these two aspects of true idea are complementary, though the first plays a more important role in that it also functions as the standard of truth. We then examined the concept of certainty. This concept is linked to the apodictic character of adequacy and is understood as indubitability, that is, as the power to exclude reasons to doubt. Finally we have shown, through examination of the spinozist solution to the "cartesian circle" problem, that this thesis supports the perfectly consistent concept of self-justification of reason
Sévérac, Pascal. "Le devenir actif chez Spinoza." Paris 4, 2001. http://www.theses.fr/2001PA040074.
Full textHow and why to become active, according to Spinoza ? In a determinist ontology, the question is : how to understand the possibility of becoming an adequate or total cause ? But most of all, in a philosophy of immanence, the real ethical question is : why should one become active ? Is passivity not sufficient to provide happiness ? What is the advantage of becoming active ? Our thesis is that these problems cannot be solved by a distinction within the mode between what it essentially can do and what it existentially is. .
Kim, Eunju. "La causalité imaginaire chez Spinoza." Thesis, Lyon, École normale supérieure, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012ENSL0726.
Full textThe notion of cause is the alpha and omega of Ethics. But it appears mostly in an oblique way: through "the idea of an external cause" that accompanies the derived passions. The cause, imagined assignable, is actually no more assignable. As the individual is complex, it is difficult to disentangle what is happening in it from the exterior, from what is produced by the interior. In passion, one is modified unwittingly to become a subject of what happens to him, and understand the cause of this change under the form of a story. This imaginary dynamics, I call it "imaginary causality" and explain it in mechanical terms. I establish first the key features of Spinoza’s mechanics: the ontological positivity of each idea (acting nature); the multiplicity of referential frames that intersect at a single nature (envelopment); and the concept of the individual as originally composed (nesting individuals). The coexistence of these referential frames around only one of them, this is precisely what constitutes the structure of imaginary causality, and the variation of their proportion, its actual content. In accordance with this structure, I apply "conatus", self-preservation principle, to ideas or affects at first, to show that desire, actual essence of a man, is a complex of affects which, as individuals themselves, mediate the influence of others. It turns out that imaginary causality is the very mechanical causality, concerning the complex individuals. Finally, while I refer to Freudian psychic causality, I attempt to outline a new concept of the unconscious: as relation without a subject or structure without a center

Full textThis thesis refers to the unity of the concept of freedom in Spinoza, focusing in the three privileged objects of the philosopher: God, man and multitude. To each one belongs a certain form of freedom: metaphysical, ethical and political. Given that, in one hand, the definition of freedom (E1D7) and in the other hand the affirmation made by Spinoza, that God is the only free cause, the problem is indeed, knowing in which sense or measure man can, from the ethical and political point of view, called free. We have tried to solve the problem studying a barely or not studied at all issue of Spinoza’s theory of the affectus: the notion of fruitio (enjoyment). We started by studying the lexical field motivated by the absence of definition of the term fruitio, in order to go further with nearby terms, such as gaudium (which has two different senses in Spinoza) and the delectatio. Furthermore, we have placed these points of view of the history of philosophy in the core of the discussion where they belong: the question of fruitio in Christian medieval philosophy. Thus, we question ourselves about the main concept of Amor intellectualis Dei, which is freedom itself, starting from the idea of fruitio, and the same in both God’s and man’s domains. Finally, we showed that in politics, the unity of the concept of freedom was sustained also due to the idea of obtinentia (enjoyment). In brief, we call free the being that enjoys its constitutive power as such, because it exists and acts out of necessity

Full textThis research that analyses Baruch Spinoza’s political thought arises on the assumption that although He initiates his political studies with the same political categories and conceptual references of Machiavelli and Hobbes, the political consequences that He infers, e.g. on democracy, are original and unique. The research also demonstrates that the novelty of Spinoza’s political thought is not limited to the discussions of his time, also provide relevant categories for current political debates. The research has consulted and studied three main works of Spinoza: Ethic Demonstrated in Geometrical Order, Theological Political Treatise, and the Political Treatise. The development of this research consists of four sections: in the first section, I explain that Spinoza’s political research initiates with concrete and vital conditions of men in the State, where the men have been deceived by fear in her mystified form, superstition. I also investigate the logic of superstition as an instrument of political control. In the second section, I analyze Spinoza’s strategy to overcome the delusion of superstition, to that effect, Spinoza finds, that furthermore of the political power, the cause of superstition is a reckless interpretation of Scripture made by the theologians. Therefore, Spinoza refutes religious alienation since a new interpretation of the scriptures that He proposes with the aim of liberating men from superstition. In this way we can see that Spinoza's hermeneutic is conceived as instrument of liberation. The third section addresses the Spinoza’s political proposal, and, at the same time, this section is a mediation with the fourth section because I focus on the political controversy that exists around the idea of ‘multitude’. In the fourth section I argue with two current interpretations of Spinoza's political thought, first I argue with Negri’s concept of "multitude" in order to refute the claim that Spinoza is a materialist philosopher and then I refute the tradition that considers Spinoza as a liberal thinker. Finally, I propose that Spinoza’s political thought is closer to Republicanism than the two previous traditions, and I conclude that his republican concept of deliberation is one of the most relevant contribution to democratic current discussions.

Resumo: A pergunta pela felicidade é essencial na filosofia imanente de Spinoza, a qual é apresentada como o gozo de uma alegria eterna e estável com Deus, causa de todas as coisas. São três âmbitos que constituem a questão da felicidade nesta filosofia: afetivo, cognitivo e ético. Assim, é na vivência dos afetos e no conhecimento deles que o conatus de cada modo finito será capaz de afirmar-se como autônomo e potência plena de autoperseveração na existência. O percurso que conduz à conquista da felicidade envolve necessariamente a experiência da alegria, visto que a alegria favorece nossa potência pois é aumento de perfeição para a ação e o pensamento. O homem que regozija de alegria é forte e ativo, compreende a si próprio e aos seus afetos, assim como compreende os demais modos de maneira adequada; é sábio e sua atenção e cuidado são dirigidos à vida e tudo o que possa contribuir com a sua expansão. Filosofia da ação, a felicidade é, portanto, a atividade vital de fruição desta alegria concomitante ao conhecimento intuitivo de terceiro gênero, ou seja, o sentimento de eternidade e união com Deus. Palavras-chave: afetos, alegria, conatus, conhecimento, Deus, felicidade.
Abstract: The question of happiness is essential in the immanent philosophy of Spinoza. Happiness is therein presented as a kind of joy resulting from an eternal, stable joy with God, who is the cause of everything. There are three areas, which build the basis of this thought about the question of happiness: affective, cognitive and ethical. So, in the experience of the affects and with the understanding of such, the conatus of every single, finite mode will be able to affirm his autonomy as well as to assert himself as full potentiality of self-persistence. The way leading to conquest of happiness requires in any case the experience of joy, since it promotes our own potentiality by being the enhancement of the perfection of acting and thinking. The man exulting from joy is strong and active, he understands himself and his affects, as well as in an appropriate way he understands the further modes. He is wise and carefully pays attention to life and everything else that may contribute to the enhancement of life potentiality. As a result and practice of a philosophy of acting happiness namely is the essential action of this joy, which presents itself on occasion of the intuitive knowledge of the third kind, which means, with the feeling of eternity and unification with God. Key words: affects, joy, conatus, knowledge, God, happiness

This essay aims to discourse on the concept of infinite in Baruch Spinoza, taking as main theoretical reference two of his works, the Metaphysical Thoughts and The Letter 12. The objective is to show that the concept of infinite represents a key idea to Spinoza s system, where all his theses concerning immanent causality and psychophysical parallelism are based on. The research begins with a historical approach about the matter of infinite, discussed by a tradition of thinkers who preceded Spinoza, since the Greeks until Descartes in modernity. In a second moment, the analysis turns to the matter of infinite understood by Spinoza who, as he defends the idea of current infinite, ends up retaking the theory of Anaxagoras, Nicolau of Cusa and Giordano Bruno, where, according to them, God is not separated of his creatures, but keeps a relation of immanency with them. In this case, according to Spinoza, to affirm that God is infinite means saying that He comprehends all things and nothing can exist separated from Him, and moreover, being substance, God cannot be separate of his conditions (modes), what is explained by the immanency of his causality, in what cause (God) and effect (modes) occur simultaneously. The habit of separate the substance from his conditions comes from the misunderstanding between the way how the mind understands the substance through the beings of Reason (time, measure, number) and the essence of the own substance. Through the beings of Reason, the substance is composed of parts and, therefore, it is divisible; however, considering its essential aspect, it is indivisible. This explains the thesis of parallelism as well since mind and body, due to inseparability of conditions, cannot be considered independent substances, but expressions of a single and same substance, either conceived by the attribute of thinking, or conceived by the attribute of extension. According to Spinoza, the dualism proposed by his main interlocutor, Descartes, precisely appeared due to the fact of his misunderstanding concerning the real aspect of substance (indivisible attributes) with his modal aspect (divisible modes).
Esta dissertação tem o objetivo de discorrer sobre o conceito de infinito em Baruch Spinoza, tomando como referencial teórico principal duas de suas obras, Os Pensamentos Metafísicos e a Carta 12. A tarefa aqui é mostrar que o conceito de infinito representa uma ideia chave para o sistema de Spinoza, sobre o qual estão assentadas as teses da causalidade imanente e do paralelismo psicofísico. O estudo se inicia com uma abordagem histórica acerca da questão do infinito, discutido por uma tradição de pensadores que antecederam Spinoza, desde os gregos até Descartes na modernidade. Em um segundo momento, a análise se volta para questão do infinito entendido por Spinoza que, ao defender a ideia do infinito atual, acaba retomando as teorias de Anaxágoras, Nicolau de Cusa e Giordano Bruno, segundo as quais Deus não está separado de suas criaturas, mas mantém uma relação de imanência com elas. Nesse caso, para Spinoza, afirmar que Deus é infinito significa dizer que Ele abrange todas as coisas e nada pode existir separado Dele, ou melhor, sendo substância, Deus não pode ser separado de suas afecções (os modos), o que é explicado pela imanência de sua causalidade, na qual causa (Deus) e o efeito (as afecções) ocorrem conjuntamente. O hábito de separar a substância de suas afecções vem da confusão entre o modo como a mente percebe a substância através dos entes de Razão (tempo, medida, número) e a essência da própria substância. Pelos entes de Razão, a substância é composta de partes e, portanto divisível; todavia, considerando o seu aspecto essencial, ela é indivisível. Isso explica também a tese do paralelismo já que a mente e o corpo, devido à indissociabilidade das afecções, não podem ser consideradas substâncias independentes, mas expressões de uma única e mesma substância, ora concebida pelo atributo pensamento, ora concebida pelo atributo extensão. De acordo com Spinoza, o dualismo proposto pelo seu principal interlocutor, Descartes, surgiu justamente pelo fato deste confundir o aspecto real da substância (atributos indivisíveis) com seu aspecto modal (modos divisíveis).

Full textEthic purports to lead us, as if by the band, towards beatitude and salvation. It shows us the way which allows us, by associating as much as possible our affects to real ideas, to attain true knowledge and the love of God. Whom does “Ethics” address ? Our hypothesis is that it addresses the same readers as the “Theologico-Political Treatise” does, who would philosophize more f eely would they not be prevented from it by the thought that reason should serve theology. After having shown that scripture should be interpreted before being claimed God's word, that prophetic certainty was just moral certainty, Spinoza offers the mathematical certainty of understanding, as the true word of God which speaks directly to our soul ; God who becomes known not as a transcendental God but as an immanent God, efficient cause of all things and thus of our ideas, distinct and clear, which shall allow us to discover a God which acts feely out of necessity of nature, in outright opposition to the scholastic and Cartesian doctrines. This rational revelation nonetheless does not cancel the prophetic revelation, which truth isn't in speculation, but in moral teachings, and especially by in Christ's message of love, model of true life. But if the ultimate goal of each of the revelations is to enjoy the love of God, what is in each of them the nature of this love?
Espinosa, Julieta. "Spinoza : les savoirs de la nature." Paris 1, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996PA010647.
Full textSpinoza defines the constitution of theological and naturalist knowledge in the tractatus theologico-politicus based in the analysis of its texts under two perspectives. First, he approaches the position of medical (hippocrates, van helmont, riolan, f. Bayle, tamai de rauenna, sydenham) anatomical (bartholin, de graaf, harvey, steno, wale), zoological (swammerdam, redi, aristotle) and geological (steno) texts who take into account only the explanations of natural things without consider the books as a totality. Spinoza, on the other hand, propose the creation of a natural history from which it would be possible its interpretation concerning a practical guide for living. Spinoza assumes the naturalist perspective in the first thesis, in the second relates to his proposal with respect to the construction of naturalist knowledge. Theological knowledge can be identified in two processes, the first springs from the teachings of the old testament concerning the necessary modifications in ordre to conform them to differents nations, after adaptes on the new testament, that is to say the scripture's doctrine. The second confirms the legalization of such modifications taking into account the different names used in designation the scripture : "sacred volumes" (sacra volumina), "sacred letters" (sacrae litterae), "sacred" (), "old and new testament" (vetus & novus testamentum), scriptures (scripturae), "writings" (), "bible" (biblia), meaning the structure of the scripture's textes in themselves

Full textThe aim of this work is to inquire gnoseological and metaphysical implications of Spinoza’s mos geometricus. The use of this method in Ethica is interpreted as a criticism against the views on method of both aristotelianlogics and «cartesian logic» which arose from the Revius-Clauberg debate. Spinoza points out that these traditions share the theory of knowledge as judgement, based on the freedom of the will, and the definition of ideas as intentional acts. In De intellectus emendatione Spinoza tries to set up a metaphysical theory of method in which association laws of ideas are independent from mind cognitive faculties. In this treatise there is a criticism of the theoretical foundation of method in Descartes and Clauberg whose definition of thinking is based on the properties of extension (duration, length ad velocity). In Ethica the theories of contemporary geometricians – Clavius, Borelli and notably Tacquet, but also Pascal who Spinoza read in Port-Royal Logique – contrast the traditional knowledge explanations. Definitio nominis and methods of construction of geometrical figures show a kind of knowledge in which ideas are self-establishing. Method plays an essential role in the criticism of metaphysics as ontotheologic; refusing the function of entia rationis in science Spinoza wipes out a basic principle of the ontology of Suárez, Goclenius, Burgersdijk and Clauberg. The Ousiology of Ethica and the definition of Deus sive natura as infinite substance immanent cause result directly from the refutation of the science of what is common to God and creatures. The interdependence of philosophical thesis and their method of exposition who marks Spinoza’s works is due to essential limits of linguistic signs who, being material objects, cannot give an intuitive knowledge ofthe eternity of mind

Full text"Ad captum vulgi loqui" : this famous phrase written by Spinoza expresses both one of the requirements of philosophy, - sharing "true goodness" with the largest number of men, and an impossibility for philosophy, which cannot adapt itself to the capacities of the common run of mankind without imperilling its own adequacy. The present work aims at looking into this paradoxical requirement of Spinozism by studying the importance and practice of the communication of goodness. The word "communication here does not refer to a notion defined by Spinoza himself, but to the way Spinoza deals with all questions. On the other hand the object is precisely the communication of goodness, for the problem lies in the philosopher's use of a language which he borrows from common people while he is aware of its inadequacy. This thesis upholds and exemplifies three main contentions : 1/ Communication in Spinozism is not a minor question that would just concern the mere transmission of a doctrine and of a view of goodness previously found out ; it is rather intrinsically part and parcel of the goodness sought after. 2/ This goodness is not one of mankind's destinations, but a possibility that the philosopher is bound to explore in order to find by his own means the power to determine himself. Thus a field of action is defined for rational man among his fellow-creatures, who do not neccessarily aim at the same goal, but whom it is always possible to put on the same track. 3/ The question of thruth is removed by Spinoza from an individual subject's traditional contemplation to the level of narration and communication between individuals. What is at stake is the opening of a field for a concept of otherness within a doctrine reputed for its ontological and mental monism

Full textThis thesis investigates the key issues, limits and implications of the relation between the philosophies of Nietzsche and Spinoza. It analyses the role of Spinoza in Nietzsche’s writings (part I) and develops a theoretical proposal starting from the works of the two authors (II, III and part IV). The historical investigation presents Nietzsche’s notes on Spinoza in a thematic-chronological order, analyses their sources and discusses their meaning in the general economy of Nietzsche’s thought. The second part of the thesis investigates the reasons why the connection between Nietzsche and Spinoza can be theoretically convincing by analysing their critical approach to the world of shared beliefs. In particular, the notion of "cause" seems to be a rest of the metaphysical belief in the subject within the deterministic universe of science. How can determinism be philosophically consistent? The last two parts of this thesis develop some hypotheses on this subject by considering separately the philosophies of Spinoza and Nietzsche.

Full textThe thesis assumes the centrality of the language given by the linguistic turn. We propose, therefore, the resumption of Spinoza's philosophy of immanence for this question. We argue that the philosopher promotes the language as an affirmative force, as self-knowledge and expression in its proper philosophical and immanent activity. To doing this, we assume the following itinerary : we make a seventeenth century revival, emphasizing the specific questions of the semantical traditional language, based on the cartesian theory of knowledge. Afterwards, we present the theoretical basis for thinking the language in Spinoza against cartesianism, namely the self, free will and the self-knowledge. We understand that, for Spinoza, the language follows a common and habitual order that can be overcome by the order of the active ideas of the intellect and according to its nature and potency. We extract how the philosopher himself affirms his own power of interpretation by the written language in his thought. From this idea, we assume that the central hypothesis is take Spinoza as interpreter of his life and of the texts that come to him as affectivity. This interpretative capacity is present also in the creative use of language through the written expression of his own philosophical theory. In this way, the geometric method is not an idealized model but is crossed by affects, affections and ideas that affect the reader. Finally, unlike the ideal of perfect linguistic communication, the Ethics is placed as a work that conveys the greatest affection that can exist through writing and is an invitation also for the reader to enjoy it. With this, at the same time, the author invites his reader to this knowledge and expression of himself, where geometry is an optical prism of an opening of singular senses and experiences. The philosophy of immanence, unlike contemporary semantic or pragmatic paradigms, promotes an absolute immanence of language that is linked to the expression and communication of philosophy and language as life, that is, as an affective potency

Full textI take as my starting point Althusser’s theoretical anti-humanism (directed in particular against Feuerbach) and more recent analyses on alienation, a notion that was precisely contested by Althusser insofar as it refers to humanism understood as the recognition of a subject that is self-determining. In order to shed light on what is at stake in this tension, I examine the positions of three philosophers who differentiate themselves from this “humanist” paradigm that has held a dominant position in the modern era: Montaigne, Spinoza, Feuerbach. I seek to establish that they form a historico-philosophical line and that there are historical pathways and important analogies between them. The very way they distinguish themselves respectively from doctrines of human “dignity,” from Descartes’ “real distinction,” and from the different varieties of subjectivity in German idealism entitles me to draw the comparison. These converging positions are always built on the background of a separation between philosophy and theology and are made up of both an anti-humanist perspective and a concern for constituting a natural anthropology. If man remains at the center of their discourses, they are not dealing any more with “humanist” subjectivity. Naturalizing man contributes each time to depriving him of his traditional prerogatives and to making room for conceiving what alienation amounts to. I reach the conclusion that these authors, who have put passions and sensibility in the core of man, satisfy two apparently contradictory requirements: the anti-humanist test, and the required elaboration of a concept of alienation to which they belong from a proto-historical point of view
