Description

Subject Area: Philosophy

Introduces Hegel's thought through a close examination of key Hegelian texts such as 'The Phenomenology of Spirit' and 'The Philosophy of Right'. Some attention will be given to Hegel's influence on European philosophy, his relation to his German idealist contemporaries (Schelling and Fichte), as well as Hegel’s influence on contemporary philosophy. Issues examined may include: modernity, knowledge, spirit, dialectic, experience, self-consciousness, normativity, civil society, reconciliation and freedom."
