In Idealism, Politics and History, Mr Kelly provides a wide-ranging
but careful scholarly analysis of the meeting of two vital themes
in the French Revolutionary period: intellectual and moral
perceptions of history, and the patterns of political systems. He
argues that a close exploration of the former is critical to our
understanding of political philosophy at the end of the Age of
Reason. The author traces his central preoccupations in a series of
linked studies of Rousseau, Kant, Fichte and Hegel. Each essay is
in its own right an important contribution to the history of
political ideas. Cumulatively, they furnish a context of thought in
which Hegel's system of thought can be clarified and reinterpreted.
Mr Kelly thus succeeds not only in conveying an appreciation of the
connection between philosophy and politics in Hegel, but in tracing
the stages of an entire school of interpretation.
