What is the nature of dialectic according to Hegel? And what is
achieved by its means? These are the main questions that John
McTaggart (1866-1925) seeks to answer in this work, first published
in 1896. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the
Cambridge-educated philosopher and fellow of Trinity College
enjoyed a prominent position within the circle of idealist
philosophers, and was regarded as one of England's leading Hegel
scholars. Although a proponent of the German philosopher's
dialectical thinking in general, McTaggart was not uncritical of
Hegel's philosophy and objected to his application of abstract
thought. In this work, McTaggart not only gives the reader a
thorough introduction to Hegel's understanding of the dialectic
method but also exposes a number of points on which he considers
Hegel's teaching to be inaccurate: one of these is Hegel's
insistence that evil is merely a delusion.
