2020 is the 350 th anniversary of the publication of Tractatus Theologico-Politicus( TTP). The history of the republication and research of it can be divided into five major stages. First,from 1670 to 1781,the stage of early dissemination,it became the most widely condemned“ atheistic” book in the intellectual world of western Europe. Second,from 1781 to 1882,the stage of entering into universities,it became an important resource for elites to construct new philosophical systems. Third,from 1882 to 1925,the stage of early philological research,a group of scholars studied and published Spinoza’s complete works which promoted the establishment of special Spinoza studies and contributed to the study of TTP on a new foundation. Fourth,from 1925 to 1999,the stage of regaining attention,it was interpreted within various disciplines such as religious and political philosophy,biblical and classical studies. Fifth,from 1999 to the present,the stage of the establishment of TTP studies. The new critical version of TTP jointly finished by French and Dutch scholars combined advantages of classical and philosophical studies and has become a new starting point for the future study of TTP in various languages around the world.
