Description

The spinoza-ttp list is intended to support slow readings of
Spinoza's Tractatus Theologico-Politicus. For a brief discussion
of what I mean by "slow reading," please see my essay at
http://www.freelance-academy.org/slowread.htm.The spinoza-ttp
list is one of a group of lists devoted to Spinoza, including
spinoza@egroups.com for general discussion about Spinoza,
spinoza-tie@egroups.com for reading the Tractatus de Intellectus
Emendatione and spinoza-ethics@egroups.com for reading the
Ethics.

This is one of a group of lists, mostly dealing with philosophy,
which are hosted by The Free Lance Academy, a not-for-profit
organization whose main purpose is to create opportunities for
serious, committed intellectual inquiry outside the university,
primarily by means of online media such as internet mailing
lists. For the names of other lists in this group, search on the
relevant keywords listed below.

In the belief that the most effective way to learn something is
to teach it, another of the principal aims of The Free Lance
Academy is to provide opportunities for teaching, especially for
people who might not otherwise have such an opportunity. If you
would like to become a discussion leader of this list or any
other list hosted by The Free Lance Academy, please contact Lance
Fletcher, the President of The Free Lance Academy, at:
lrf@freelance-academy.org.. Keywords: The Free Lance
Academy, freelance, freelance-academy, philosophy, slow reading,
Spinoza, Ethics, Political Philosophy, Theology, hermeneutics,
scripture

Re: Chap. 3--The vocation of the Hebrews
