  1. The philosophical doctrine of Baruch Spinoza (1632-1677) and his followers.
    • Monism, as characterized here, seems to be a commitment both of Spinoza and of variants of Spinozism influential in Germany in the 1780s and 90s. 2002, Sebastian Gardner, Paul Franks, “From Kant to Post-Kantian Idealism”, in Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society, Supplementary Volumes, vol. 76, p. 230 note 7:

Baier, “David Hume, Spinozist”, in Hume Studies, volume 19:
    • A common weapon against Cartesians in those latter days was an accusation of Spinozism. 1878, J. P. N. Land, “Philosophy in the Dutch Universities,”, in Mind, volume 3, number 9, page 96:
