128 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

. . . eminently readable . . . admirably picks up the spirit of what Hegel is saying. . . . more readable and accurate than Hartmann''s, and it trans­lates a more readable text than does Nisbet''s. It includes (as Hartmann''s does not) an excerpt, which serves as chapter five, from ''The Geo­graphical Basis of History'' (particularly interesting for what it says of America), and a brief chapter six, entitled ''The Division of History.'' The volume closes with an appendix, translating §§341-360 of Hegel's Philosophy of Right and deals directly with the very concept of ''World History.'' It constitutes a big help in coming to grips with what Hegel means by ''Spirit.'' --Quentin Lauer, SJ, Fordham University, in International Philosophical Quarterly
