It is a pleasure to contribute to the inaugural issue of the Journal of Spinoza Studies. I congratulate the founding editors and am grateful for their invitation to reflect on an agenda for the future of Spinoza studies. Any agenda is of course merely an agenda, a set of preliminary speculations about future paths for research and reflection, one reader's sense of possibilities after peregrinations in the field. The 400 th anniversary of Spinoza's birth and the 350 th anniversary of his death approach, and the history of Spinoza reading is long.
