Israel Gottlieb Canz Bücher

Canzius (1690–1753) was a professor of rhetoric and poetry at the University of Tübingen. This work shows Canzius at the height of the philosophical and philological research of his time and on the threshold of the Age of Enlightenment. In 200 concisely written articles, he deals with the broad field of grammar at that time as well as linguistic philosophy, the theory of semiotics, phonetics, orthography, syntax, etymology, prosody and the study of verse.

This scholarly work examines the concept of 'miracle' in the philosophy of Baruch Spinoza, one of the most important thinkers of the early modern period. The authors, a team of prominent German philosophers, offer a fresh and innovative interpretation of Spinoza's views on the divine, the natural world, and the limits of reason. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in Spinoza's philosophy or the history of metaphysics.
