Summary:
Born in Stuttgart,Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel(1770-1831) attended the Gymnasium Illustre and, at the age of 18, entered the Tübingen Seminary, from which he received his theological certificate in 1793. His early writings, composed while he was serving as a family tutor in Bern and Frankfurt, dealt with religious subjects. From 1801 until his untimely death thirty years later, Hegel held professorships at several prestigious universities and went on to write the landmark works for which hes known, including his masterpiece thePhenomenology of Spirit(1807). Renowned in his own time, he gained great fame as a lecturer, with students coming from all over Europe to attend his classes.
InSimply Hegel,Robert L. Wickspresents Hegels revolutionary philosophy in clear and simple language, illuminating not only his basic ideas, but also the deeper meanings hidden within the text. Wickss analysis also contextualizes Hegels thought by providing a vivid chronology of his times, which included such earth-shaking events as the French Revolution and Napoleons invasion of Prussia.
Offering the reader key insights into German idealist philosophy, as well as Hegels unique role in the evolution of ideas,Simply Hegelis a superb introduction to both a towering historical figure and a philosophical system that continues to echo through our own times.
