use libgen! i would recommend trying deleuze's book called spinoza: practical philosophy; particularly the index which defines many of the terms spinoza uses.

also try giving the stanford page on spinoza a read, it might help elucidate some parts you're having trouble with. otherwise, keep reading! it will get easier.
