"Interpreting Hegel means taking a stand on all the philosophical,
political and religious problems of our century." Merleau-Ponty
G. W. F. Hegel (1770-1831), arguably the greatest philosopher of
the nineteenth century, decisively influenced the direction of all
subsequent European thought. He has been interpreted variously as a
theist and an atheist, a conservative and a liberal, an
essentialist and a proto-existentialist, a rationalist and an
irrationalist. In all the areas he covered, Hegel sought a new form
of understanding that had eluded his predecessors but which he
believed was necessary for mankind to once again find itself "at
home in the world."
This collection of works on Hegel reflects the many-sided nature
of Hegel's reception from 1831 onwards, and offers critical studies
on the full range of his work. The four volumes incorporate the
classic readings of Hegel, from both the continental and analytic
traditions, and also include the central twentieth-century readings
influenced by developments in European thought which reappraise his
work. These volumes offer a unique perspective on Hegel by
revealing how our understanding of him is influenced by historical
readings of his work. Each volume provides a clear and helpful
introduction which sets the articles in their historic context and
highlights the central philosophical issues they raise.
