Could someone check the grammar of this article? I am quite sure that I made some mistakes, but cannot solve them myself right away. Thanks in advance, --[[Usor:Maurits|Maurits]] 00:30, 23 Maii 2009 (UTC)
==Corrections==
Salve Rafaelgarcia, thank you for your corrections. Some explications:
*By "Cunti rei singularis sunt ''modi'' Naturae (sive Dei)" I meant: "All singular things are modes of Nature (or, what is the same, of God)."
*By "Modi attributis cogitaris" I meant: "Modes of the attribute of thought."
*I chose "perfectissimum" to express the absolute perfection (that's what Spinoza uses to prove the existence of only one substance, he has a peculiar definition of "perfection")
Spinoza used some very specific technical language. E.g. substance (God or Nature) has infinite many "attributes" (among which thought and extension), which express the essence of that substance. Everything else is a ''mode'' of God, either as an idea (being expressed/perceived in the ''attribute thought'') or as a physical thing (being expressed/perceived in the ''attribute extension'').
The general idea in contemporary language is, that God is both a thinking and an extended thing and that all "things" and ideas which we perceive are modes of his thought (his ideas) or modes of his extension (his body, so to say).
I hope that this clarifies my intentions. Kind regards, --[[Usor:Maurits|Maurits]] 02:19, 23 Maii 2009 (UTC)
