Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (German pronunciation: [ˈɡeɔʁk ˈvɪlhɛlm ˈfʁiːdʁɪç ˈheːɡəl]) (August 27, 1770 – November 14, 1831) was a German philosopher, one of the creators of German Idealism. His historicist and idealist account of the total reality as a whole revolutionized European philosophy and was an important precursor to continental philosophy. Hegel developed a comprehensive philosophical framework, or "system", to account in an integrated and developmental way for the relation of mind and nature, the subject and object of knowledge, and psychology, the state, history, art, religion and philosophy. In particular, he developed a concept of mind or spirit that manifested itself in a set of contradictions and oppositions that it ultimately integrated and united, without eliminating either pole or reducing one to the other. Examples of such contradictions include those between nature and freedom, and between immanence and transcendence. Hegel influenced writers of widely varying positions, including both his admirers (Bauer, Brandom, Feuerbach, Marx, Bradley, Dewey, Sartre, Küng, Kojève, Žižek) and his detractors (Schelling, Kierkegaard, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Peirce, Popper, Russell). His influential conceptions are of speculative logic or "dialectic", "absolute idealism", "Spirit", negativity, sublation (Aufhebung in German), the "Master/Slave" dialectic, "ethical life" and the importance of history.

GNU Free Documentation License Is Hegel's "philosophy" really a kind of gnosticism? Q. I've been researching Eric Voeglin's views on this issue. *Voegelin seems to have a decent grasp of the historical situations. Asked by Evan D - Thu Nov 15 22:48:11 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. "The early Voegelin (especially his "Science, Politics and Gnosticism") was of great worth to the conservative movement. The later Voegelin became a victim of his own analysis. He no longer saw the meaning in history. Dr. Eric Voegelin succumbed to the gnawing gambit of gnosticity." Gnosticism is a universal question of Philosophy. Hegel was a Philosopher. Voegelin was into Political Science. I don't think the two can be compared.

Why does Hegel think that the slave has a more fully developed consciousness than the master? Asked by Mary - Sun Feb 24 17:57:05 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Hegel thinks that the slave consciousness is more developed because it has nothing to lose. If it wished, it could rise up in revolt against the master, and take everything away from him. Also, the master is dependent upon the slave for recogition, for "being superior" is the only thing that makes the master the master. The slave, on the other hand, goes into nature, taking nature and shaping it for the will of the master. Therefore, the slave, while still a slave, lives a regular life needing everything - while all the master needs is recognition.

Q. Concerning things like alienation, estrangement, and nature? I know Marx originally liked Hegel, but in his works he calls him abstract. What does he mean by this? Asked by Regm - Thu Mar 5 17:57:59 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. He meant that he rejected his philosophical idealism, as Hegel saw the working out of the dialectic in history as essentially the universal mind coming to know itself as such. Marx took (from Feuerbach and others) a materialist conception of history, and so for him alienation was of material wealth from its creators, not about ideas. Marx prided himself on gritty realism and (in later writings) a focus upon objective economic processes, so rejected Hegel's work as an abstraction from reality.
