. . . 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

本书汇辑著名德国古典哲学家黑格尔在柏林大学的多次演讲记录，由其高足爱德华德・干斯教授整理而成。自问世以来，学术界公认为进入和研究黑格尔哲学系统的入门书籍；又因原为对应一般大学生的理解能力和专业知识水平而表述，故体例格式不必谨严深奥的高头讲章，照搬《哲学的传记史》作者鲁维斯所言，此书乃其“生平所读这类著作中最愉快的一部”，而占据全书篇幅甚多的例证解释，对于研究哲学不深的读者也是很熟悉的。其另一个重要价值，就是用一个截然新颖的观点来论列“历史”上各种主要事实，从而使人可能比较顺利地把握住黑格尔哲学的主导概念，再由此带动对该系统各个方面的深入认知。王造时先生的译述，复以平实雅正、忠实本义而著闻。名著名译，洵为一切从事哲学和哲学史研究者的必备经典。

This brilliant study of the stages in the mind's necessary progress from immediate sense-consciousness to the position of a scientific philosophy includes an introductory essay and a paragraph-by-paragraph analysis of the text to help the reader understand this most difficult and most influential of Hegel's works.

This volume includes Hegel's most important early theological writings, though not all of the materials collected by Herman Nohl in his definitive Hegels theologische Jugendschriften (Tuebingen, 1907). The most significant omissions are a series of fragments to which Nohl give the general title "National Religion and Christianity" and the essay "Life of Jesus."

This book is a translation of a classic work of modern social and political thought, Elements of the Philosophy of Right. Hegel's last major published work, is an attempt to systematize ethical theory, natural right, the philosophy of law, political theory and the sociology of the modern state into the framework of Hegel's philosophy of history. Hegel's work has been interpreted in radically different ways, influencing many political movements from far right to far left, and is widely perceived as central to the communication tradition in modern ethical, social and political thought. This edition includes extensive editorial material informing the reader of the historical background of Hegel's text, and explaining his allusions to Roman law and other sources, making use of lecture materials which have only recently become available. The new translation is literal, readable and consistent, and will be informative and scholarly enough to serve the needs of students and specialists alike.
