In this essay the author tries to show that Spinoza’s negation of contingency intended as indetermination does not prevent conceiving the contingency of the mode in an even more radical way than that attributed to him by Leibniz in Ad Ethicam. Namely, the mode is not only that whose essence does not involve existence but also that whose essence itself depends on God’s immanent causality.

Keywords: Spinoza, Leibniz, God, necessity, contingency, imagination, memory, possibility
