Description

Hegel's Dialectic and Its Criticism by Michael Rosen explores the complexities of Hegel's philosophy, often likened to a circle of circles. This comprehensive analysis delves into the challenges of historical interpretation and presents a novel solution to the problem of Hegel's openness to criticism. At its core, Hegel's system is founded upon a particular conception of philosophical experience, which Rosen argues is rooted in 'pure Thought'. This fundamental concept underpins the claim to rationality of the entire system. However, Rosen contends that all attempts at rehabilitation of Hegel are based on misunderstanding, as restored to their speculative-mystical shell, the irrational kernel of his concepts becomes apparent. This book offers a thought-provoking examination of Hegel's philosophy, one that will appeal to scholars and enthusiasts alike.
