What is the highest good man can seek? What kind of society can we propose according to Spinoza ?s Ethics? This paper explores the notion of “intellectual love of God” as presented in Part V of the Ethics dwelling on the emancipatory elements it brings forth as much as the existential and philosophical costs it entails. Is the in-tellectual blessedness Spinoza offers the real summum bonum of the Ethics or, as we suggest, it is political peace, tolerance and a friendly disposition towards one another the true aim of his system?
