Zusatztext Stephen Houlgate's guide is undoubtedly based on years of patiently guiding students through the Phenomenology at Warwick University and this pedagogical intent is its great strength and virtue. It concentrates on the first four chapters of Hegel's book and succeeds admirably in setting out how the logical nature of the arguments unpack themselves. This allows the reader to concentrate on the task of following what Hegel is saying in particular paragraphs without having to grapple with larger questions of interpretation. Informationen zum Autor Stephen Houlgate is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Warwick, UK. He has been teaching Hegel’s Logic for over 30 years and is the author of several works on Hegel including An Introduction to Hegel's Philosophy: Freedom, Truth and History , 2nd Ed. (2005) and The Opening of Hegel's Logic (2006). He has served as the President of the Hegel Society of Great Britain since 2011. Klappentext First published in 1801!

First published in 1801, Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit has exercised considerable influence on subsequent thinkers, from Marx and Kierkegaard to Heidegger, Kojève, Adorno and Derrida. Zusammenfassung Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit is probably his most famous work. First published in 1807, it has exercised considerable influence on subsequent thinkers from Feuerbach and Marx to Heidegger, Kojève, Adorno and Derrida. The book contains many memorable analyses of, for example, the master / slave dialectic, the unhappy consciousness, Sophocles' Antigone and the French Revolution and is one of the most important works in the Western philosophical tradition. It is, however, a difficult and challenging book and needs to be studied together with a clear and accessible secondary text.
