The workis notable, not only because it presents radically new theoriesacross a range of fields -- metaphysics, theology, psychology, andethics -- but also for the unusually rigorous approach it takes todefending them. Much of the book is written, in the style ofEuclid's Elements of Geometry, as a series of geometrical proofsof numerous philosophical points, accompanied by definitions,axioms, demonstrations, and corollaries, as well as interveningstretches of friendlier prose (scholia).The opening page of Spinoza's magnum opus, EthicsThe book is divided into five parts. Each begins with a glossaryof key concepts and a list of axioms. The titles for each part aretaken from Edwin Curley's standard translation of Ethics intoEnglish.
