Recovering Hegel From the Critique of Leo Strauss - The Virtues of Modernity

Recovering Hegel from the Critique of Leo Strauss provides a study unique in its focus on Leo Strauss's reading of Hegel. While MacDonald and Craig find value in Strauss's thought, they argue that his pessimism concerning modernity lies in a misunderstanding of both modernity's greatest philosophical advocate, G.W.F. Hegel, and modernity's virtues.
