ABSTRACT
The Spanish Intermezzo had an aftermath of monumental consequences in the world of philosophy: The system of Baruch de Spinoza. The author know that Spinoza lived after the dawn of the Reformation and that the Reformation does not belong to the Middle Ages. Spinoza's statement and definition of space have been driven to distraction by a contemporary of Isaac Newton, Henry More, who entertained the mystic view that empty space, the cause of gravity, should be regarded as the Prime Cause or God Himself. Spinoza's study object, the timeless logic as the highest reality, reminds readers, in a way, of Albert Einstein's four-dimensional space-time, where time is merged through its multiplication by the velocity of light into a fourth linear dimension. Spinoza believed that a free and wise man should feel morally neutral with regard to the interests of others.
