"Hegel's Phenomenology of the Spirit was written, so the story goes, on the eve of Napoleon's destruction of the Holy Roman Empire and at the beginning of the German 'Wars of Liberation.' The book itself is no less dramatic or revolutionary. It is Hegel's grandest experiment, changing our vision of the world and the very nature of the philosophical enterprise. . . ".--Robert C. Solomon, Professor of Philosophy, University of Texas, Austin. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.

Phenomenology of Spirit | Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, A.V. Miller (tr.)

Whether or not logic really helps us grasp the changing stream of consciousness within our heads is irrelevant: ultimately, we discover the practical meaning of philosophy through experience, not reflection.

The stream of consciousness can be suppressed, and we should never repress anything. To maintain joy, we begin acting in our minds and release full control over our activity in the automatic procedures of the body.

It is solely by risking life that freedom is obtained; . . . the individual who has not staked his or her life may, no doubt, be recognized as a Person; but he or she has not attained the truth of this recognition as an independent self-consciousness.
