ABSTRACT

In Spinoza’s philosophical system, indignation is categorized as a sad passion, associated with hatred and thus indicative of powerlessness. However, in the Political Treatise (1677), this affect seems to acquire a different role, as Spinoza links it to the desire for justice, grounding it in the love of liberty. This apparent paradox can be understood through Spinoza’s concept of jus as an expression of potentia: the right of each individual corresponds to their capacity to act and resist. This talk explores the role of indignation in Spinoza’s political thought, questioning how it can represent not merely a reactive emotion but also an expression of collective potentia. What is the relationship between indignation and justice in the establishment of the State? How does this affect connect to the innate desire for liberty and the capacity for resistance against tyrannical rule? By examining key passages of the Political Treatise, I propose an interpretation of indignation not solely as a sign of impotence but as an affect that arises within the tension between individual potentia and political order, illuminating the interplay of affects, right, and justice in Spinoza’s philosophy.

摘要

在斯宾诺莎的哲学体系中，义愤被归类为一种可悲的激情，它与憎恨联系在一起，并以这种方式表明了无能为力。然而，在《政治论》（1677年）中，这种情感似乎获得了不同的角色，因为斯宾诺莎将它与对正义的渴望联系起来，将对自由的热爱作为它的根据。凭借斯宾诺莎的“jus”概念，即“力”（potentia）的表达，可以理解这个明显的悖论：每个人的权利对应于他们行动和抵抗的能力。本次讲座探讨了义愤在斯宾诺莎政治思想中的角色，探究了它如何不仅是一种反应性情感，更是一种对“力”的集体表达。义愤与建立国家时的正义之间的关系是什么？这种情感如何与对自由的内在渴望以及对抗暴政的能力相联系？通过考察《政治论》的关键段落，我对义愤提出的解释是它不完全是无力的标志，而是在个体的“力”与政治秩序的张力之中产生的情感，阐明了斯宾诺莎哲学中情感、权利和正义的相互作用。
