The Science of Logic

By Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Book Overview

Hegel's "Logic" is one of the culminating breakthroughs of modern philosophy, containing the most thorough explanation of "dialectic" that Hegel ever wrote, and setting the stage for his "Philosophy of Nature" and "Philosophy of Mind." This translation by William Wallace, White's Professor of Moral Philosophy at Oxford University, has been long recognized as a benchmark text for English translations of Hegel and of German philosophy in general. Prof. Wallace's introductory essay, explaining the origin of Hegel's "Logic" and its various editions, will help the reader to situate the work within the development of Hegel's philosophy and the important currents of German thought in his time.

Customer Reviews

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

This is the book Aleister Crowley mentions to be studied in " Liber OS ABYSMI vel DAATH." Via the reason, this man has gathered all systems of philosophy together into one gigantic fulfilment of bewilderment: if one actually contemplates what he means, one will just cause a destruction of the precepts which had accumulated to the point of fervour, thus causing one to feel worse after experiencing this annihilating tragedy of a text-book. Still, there must be some sort of sufficient synthesis inherent in the reading, as to cause a fantastic foam of brewing thoughts in the reflection mode of the Memory phase of the Mind, utterly beyond mere positive thinking.
