Hegel has had a remarkable, yet largely unremarked, role in
Canada's intellectual development. In the last half of the
twentieth-century, as Canada was coming to define itself in the
wake of World War Two, some of Canada's most thoughtful scholars
turned to the work of G.W.F. Hegel for insight. Hegel and Canada is
a collection of essays that analyses the real, but
under-recognized, role Hegel has played in the intellectual and
political development of Canada. The volume focuses on the
generation of Canadian scholars who emerged after World War Two:
James Doull, Emil Fackenheim, George Grant, Henry S. Harris, and
Charles Taylor. These thinkers offer a uniquely Canadian view of
Hegel's writings, and, correspondingly, of possible relations
between situated community and rational law. Hegel provided a
unique intellectual resource for thinking through the complex and
opposing aspects that characterize Canada. The volume brings
together key scholars from each of these five schools of Canadian
Hegel studies and provides a richly nuanced account of the
intellectually significant connection of Hegel and Canada.
