Hegel on Ethics and Politics

Description

This series makes available in English for the first time important recent work by German philosophers on major figures in the German philosophical tradition. The volumes will provide critical perspectives on philosophers of great significance to the Anglo-American philosophical community, perspectives that have been largely ignored except by a handful of writers on German philosophy. The dissemination of this work will be of enormous value to Anglophone students and scholars of the history of German philosophy. This collection brings together in translation the finest post-war German language scholarship on Hegel's social and political philosophy, concentrating on the Elements of the Philosophy of Right. Many of the essays appear in English here for the first time; all are translated anew.

'For anyone working in the field who is not already familiar with these papers in their original form, this volume is one they will want to consult. As is to be expected with contributions from experts of this stature, the levels of scholarship and textual engagement displayed in these articles is high ...'
