Hegel for beginners

Viac o knihe

Georg Hegel changed how history was philosophically understood. His influential writings on politics, history, art and philosophy are part of a larger systematic whole, and their effect on the ideas and political events of the 20th century has been profound. Yet they remain among the moot difficult in the entire history of philosophy. Increasing numbers of people are looking to the philosophers of the past to shed light on the contemporary condition. Hegel's theories echo through the writings of Marx, Lacan, Sartre and Adorno and Introducing Hegel provides new perspectives on contemporary postmodern debates about "meta-narratives" (Lyotard) and the "end of history" (Fukuyama).
