About this listen

 Phänomenologie des Geistes (1807) stands as Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegels seminal philosophical work, sparking extensive discussion and debate. As Hegels inaugural book, it intricately explores the three-stage dialectical journey of Spirit. The title can be interpreted as either The Phenomenology of Spirit or The Phenomenology of Mind, reflecting the dual meaning of the German word Geist. This foundational text laid the groundwork for Hegels later philosophies and represented a pivotal shift in German idealism post-Kant. Delving into metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, history, religion, perception, consciousness, and political philosophy, The Phenomenology is where Hegel articulates his groundbreaking ideas on dialectics (including the Master-slave dialectic), absolute idealism, ethical life, and Aufhebung. Its impact on Western philosophy is profound, often praised and critiqued for influencing existentialism, communism, fascism, the death of God theology, and historicist nihilism. Note, this is the second volume of two. (Wikipedia)Copyright Politics, Philosophy, Religion Philosophy Science Social Sciences World
