Spinoza uses two different expressions to qualify adequa-­ te knowledge: sub specie aeternitatis and sub quadam specie aeternitatis. In this arti-­ cle, the Author aims to show how the translation of these expressions has shaped the interpretation of adequate knowledge.

Keywords: Spinoza, translation, eternity.
