Hegel's analysis of his culture identifies nihilistic tendencies in
modernity i.e., the death of God and end of philosophy. Philosophy
and religion have both become hollowed out to such an extent that
traditional disputes between faith and reason become impossible
because neither any longer possesses any content about which there
could be any dispute; this is nihilism. Hegel responds to this
situation with a renewal of the ontological argument (Logic) and
ontotheology, which takes the form of philosophical trinitarianism.
Hegel on the Proofs and the Personhood of God examines Hegel's
recasting of the theological proofs as the elevation of spirit to
God and defense of their content against the criticisms of Kant and
Jacobi. It also considers the issue of divine personhood in the
Logic and Philosophy of Religion. This issue reflects Hegel's
antiformalism that seeks to win back determinate content for truth
(Logic) and the concept of God. While the personhood of God was the
issue that divided the Hegelian school into left-wing and
right-wing factions, both sides fail as interpretations. The center
Hegelian view is both virtually unknown, and the most faithful to
Hegel's project. What ties the two parts of the book
together-Hegel's philosophical trinitarianism or identity as unity
in and through difference (Logic) and his theological
trinitarianism, or incarnation, trinity, reconciliation, and
community (Philosophy of Religion)-is Hegel's Logic of the Concept.
Hegel's metaphysical view of personhood is identified with the
singularity (Einzelheit) of the concept. This includes as its
speculative nucleus the concept of the true infinite: the unity in
difference of infinite/finite, thought and being, divine-human
unity (incarnation and trinity), God as spirit in his community.
