Descartesian

Could Spinoza be freed from his stiff old Descartesian mathematical form and made more accessible to the public, it will perhaps come to light that he, above all others, has cause to complain of robbery of ideas.

His highest reach of philosophy is the old Descartesian basis of belief in doubt.

It is the post-Renaissance Descartesian dichotomy of dualism-god and devil-together with the Semitic division of god and devil that distort the Pagan Greek significations and epistemological suggestions.

This polarization unites the classical Descartesian dichotomy of a Cogito in opposition to an objective body and world.
