The 'Theological-Political Treatise' was the main work published by Spinoza during his lifetime. His intent, expressly stated in the subtitle, is to demonstrate that freedom of thought is an essential device for maintaining peace within States. Far from limiting this intent to a simple strategic statement, Espinosa elaborates what is perhaps the deepest reflection ever published on democracy, a regime he designates as 'the most natural and the one that comes closest to the freedom that nature grants to each one'. This edition includes translation, introduction, and notes by Diogo Pires Aurélio.
