Traditional attribution
Treatise of the Three Impostors (spurious)
Traité des trois imposteurs / L'Esprit de Spinosa
A pamphlet presenting Moses, Jesus and Muhammad as impostors which circulated in manuscript and in print under Spinoza's name to lend it authority, sometimes alongside Lucas's biography. It is an important document of the radical reception of Spinoza in the clandestine Enlightenment, not a work of his.
