Excellent copy. <br/><br/><em>First Danish edition of the only of Hegel's works to be translated into Danish until recent times. It is translated from the German second issue as stated on the title-page. This work has had immence influence on 19th century philosophy and this only Danish translation was of great importance to Danish philosophy at the time the time of Kierkegaard. "I snævreste forstand er den hegelianske periode i dansk filosofi afgrænset til årene omkring 1840 ! en kort men væsentlig periode i den danske tænknings historie da det var i denne at Søren Kierkegaard tog afsæt i sit senere så overvældende forfatterskab." "In the most restricted sense the hegelian period in Danish philosophy is limited to the years around 1840 ! a short but significant period in the history of Danish thought as it was in this period that the basis of the later so overwhelming writings of Søren Kierkegaard was founded. Koch Den danske idealisme 2004 p. 219. "Også blandt de unge historikere fængede Hegel. Det er næppe en tilfældighed at det eneste af hans værker der blev oversat til dansk var hans forelæsninger over historiens filosofi." "Also amongst the young historians did Hegel catch on. It is hardly a coincidence that the only one of his works to be translated into Danish were his lectures on the history op philosophy."

Hegel was perhaps more than any other German philosopher influenced by the French Revolution and this masterpiece of philosophy constitutes a grandiose attempt to make freedom the foundation of human society. "Taken apart from the rest of his system Hegel's political philosophy has been much misrepresented by totalitarian propagandists. He was however one of the most profound and influential thinkers of the nineteenth century. Theology philosophy political theory all have been radically influenced by his system; Strauss 300 Baur 322 Bradley Kierkegaard 314 Marx 326 359 Lenin 392 all came under his spell and his indirect influence has been limitless."

Volumes 1 and 2 have small abrasions to the cloth at fore-edge; light foxing to endpapers and cloth covers. Each volume is mylar protected and housed in a custom blue slipcase. First edition in English of the philosopher's examination of the conceptual foundations of religion first published in Berlin in 1832 and deriving from notes taken by Hegel's students at the University of Berlin. In Lectures Hegel 1770-1831 argues that the dogmatic creeds of organized Christianity serve to underpin rationally the instinctive nature of religious feeling. This approach which elevates rational philosophy above traditional theological practice yields a more developed understanding of God. This edition was edited and partially translated by Ebenezer Brown Speirs 1854-1900 a minister from Perthshire while much of the first two volumes was translated by Jane Burdon Sanderson who died during the publication process.</strong></p> Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co hardcover
1807144735Bamberg and Würzburg: Joseph Anton Goebhardt 1807. The phenomenology of spirit First edition first issue of Hegel's best-known and first major work. Known in English as "The Phenomenology of Spirit" this was the only part published. He develops the idea of Geist realizing itself in the intellectual development of mankind. "It begins with a dialectical discussion of sense perception in which it is argued that knowledge of physical things presupposes the view that the physical world consists of forces interacting according to laws. Hegel maintained that knowledge of such a world is really a type of self-knowledge since in penetrating to the forces behind phenomena we become aware of what we ourselves have devised and put there. 'Behind the so-called curtain which is to hide the internal constitution of things there is nothing to be seen unless we ourselves go behind'. The physical world of scientific theory presupposes self-conscious beings. When he analyzed self-consciousness Hegel argued that it presupposes a plurality of living and desiring beings each of whom seeks to subdue the world to his own wishes to make it part of himself" Edwards. This copy in the first issue with leaf A1 the sub-title reading "Erster Theil. Wissenschaft der Erfahrung des Bewusstseyns". At Hegel's request this leaf was substituted with a cancel reading "I. Wissenschaft der Phänomenologie des Geistes." Octavo 202 x 114 mm. Complete with the final advertisement leaf. Contemporary interim marbled boards rebacked and corners consolidated red edges.

XX 418 1 -errata; VI 586; VIII 692 pp. <br/><br/><em>First edition of Hegel's seminal "Lectures on the History of Philosophy" which was published posthumously by Michelet. The work comprises Hegel's nine lectures on the history of philosophy given in Jena in the winter of 1805-6 Heidelberg in the winters of 1816-17 and 1817-18 Berlin in the summer of 1819 and the winters of 1820-21 1823-23 1825-26 1827-28 and 1829-30. Just before his death in November 1931 Hegel had begun his tenth lecture course on the history of philosophy but only get two give the first two hours of it. The work is based on Hegel's own lecture manuscript from Jena which is stilized throughout and written in full "er wagte damals noch nichts dem freien mündlichen Vorträge zu überlassen" -Michelet Preface p. VI his shorter draft written in Heidelberg meant for further development at the lectures as well as number of later endorsements and additions written in the margins of the two manuscripts and on loose leaves "Diese Blätter sind von unschätzbarem Werthe weil sie die höchst reichen Zusätze aller Vorlesungen spätere Jahre durch seine eigene Handschrift dokumentieren" Michelet Preface p. VI. Besides this a number of lecture notes from learned students including those of Michelet and the other "Freunde des Verewigten" have been used to establish the text as correctly as possible. These highly influential lectures which attracted philosophers from all over Europe make up a cornerstone in the philosophy of Hegel and his view on the history of philosophy is something that understreams all of his thought. These lectures and not least the publication of them after his death have seminally influenced later philosophy and the following fifty years after Hegel's death were philosophically culturally and historically much indebted to them. It is the Hegelianism that also springs from Hegel's lectures on the history of philosophy that carries historicism the conception of cultural and social relations as products of history through the 19th century. </em> hardcover

The "Logic" can be regarded as a more systematic and well organized epistemological and ontological work. It is in this groundbreaking work of German Idealism that Hegel develops his famous dialectic which comes to determinate all later reading of his philosophy. It is Hegel's dialectic theory later condensed as "thesis-antithesis-synthesis" that is developed in this main work of 19th century philosophy. The dialectical process constitutes the movement of thought and consciousness from basic to complex ideas and thus demonstrates how the categorical infrastructure of thought can be laid bare by thought itself alone. With this work Hegel is considered as having created a revolution in the understanding of Logic because he widens it from being merely concerned with formal rules of propositions to including all of humanity. He elaborates the laws that govern the development of human practice and as a consequence he also uncovers the objective laws that govern the entire objective material world. Throughout the 20th century Hegel's logical philosophy was largely neglected but the last 40-50 years have shown a revived interest in this most fundamental of works which is of the greatest importance for the understanding of his systematic thought.Hegel himself considered his "Logic" to be of the utmost importance and he kept revising it throughout the years.
