Published a translation of the original version of Spinoza’s 『Theory of Intellectual Emendation』
Professor Kim Eun-joo

Professor Kim Eun-joo of the Pukyong National University (Basic Liberal Arts Education Center · Photo) published Spinoza’s early work, 『Theory of Intellectual Emendation』 which is called ’The Philosopher of Philosophers’, in a book of parallel texts in Latin and Korean. (Total 260 pages , Gil) This book is receiving much attention from great admirers of Spinoza in that it is a translation of the original text written in Latin by a Spinoza major. Professor Kim graduated from the Department of Korean Language Education at Seoul National University and received a master’s degree in Spinoza research from the Department of Philosophy at the Graduate School, and then finished her doctorate. In 2012, she received a Ph.D. in philosophy from Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon in France, a dissertation on the concept of causality of Spinoza. The bibliography that Professor Kim put at the end of the book is a good guide to lead the readers into this solid, brick-like book. The subtitle on this book is so long as this. ’A contention that the best way to emend intelligence and lead it to truly perceive things.’ According to the bibliography, it was said that Schopenhauer recommended the introduction of 『Theory of Intellectual Emendation』 as ‘the most powerful method to calm the storm of emotions’ as far as he knows. In the meantime, focusing on Spinoza mainly, Professor Kim is concentrating upon the studies on 17th-century philosophy such as Descartes and Hobbes, while studying contemporary French philosophy such as Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, and Jacques Lacan. <기사보기 클릭!>
