Bumping a thread about the translators/tertiary academic hangers-on of French/Italian theorists, I've taken a specific interest in them recently.

I wonder whether anyone knows anything about the work of Giuseppina Mecchia, for example. A serious question.

Affections are feelings. You feel a certain way in reaction to stuff in your environment.
Spinoza is really the best there is to philosophy. There's nothing either before or after him as precise and well-built as his works. His vision of God, the world, and the affects of the soul are the best metaphysics and psychology we'll ever get to see.
