A " Societas Spinozana " has lately been founded to
study the philosophy of Spinoza. The annual subscription of ten shillings may be sent to Mr. Leon Roth, Exeter College, Oxford. The headquarters of the society are at The Hague, and it pro- poses to hold conferences at fixed intervals, to reissue docu- ments relating to Spinoza, and to publish an annual volume of original studies. The first Chronicon Spinozanum has just been published on excellent antique paper and in good type, cast after the fount of Johannes Rieuwertz, the first printer of the Ethics. The contributions are, for the most part, in Scholar's- Latin, German, Dutch, French or English. Xt is natural in a polyglot book, but unfortunate in the records of a learned society, that misprints should be so frequent. The volume should be counted instructive and pleasant by absolutist philosophers.
