Abstract


The Nature is the foundation of human existence. However, since modern times, human beings plunder and harm the Nature for more than three hundred years. It make the relationship between human and the Nature become worse than ever before. People are in danger. Thus, people try to find out the cause of the ecological crisis and get some inspiration in the seventeenth century in Europe.Spinoza is a great and important early modern Dutch Jewish philosopher. Based on the unity of opposites between " in se " and " in alio ", he established the concept of Trinity of Deus and Natura and Substantia, constructed a complete metaphysical system consisting by Ontology-Epistemology-Ethics. He considered that, human is just the entity produced limited modus, human’s nous can only know the space attribute and the thought attribute of the entity, and can not know unlimited kinds of attributes, defined the range of competence of human’s nous. human, as a kind of limited modus, must obey the orders of Deus.The inspiration of Spinoza’s idea of Nature is that, people should rediscover and to respect the ecological value of natural; he represented the range of competence of human’s nous, let human beings abandon the ambitions of conquest of Nature by science and technology and make the science and technology be more ecological; it awakens people’s awareness of ecological ethics and restricts people’s ethical behavior.Spinoza’s thought is significant to Chinese Ecology Civilization Construction, But the Spinoza’s environmental philosophy has not been done enough, we still need more extensive, in-depth study in the future.
