Abstract
The papers in this collection were first presented at the fifth biennial meeting of the Hegel Society of America in 1978. They all have Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit as their central point of reference, and include papers dealing with his methodology, the place of the PG in his wider project, and the inevitable comparisons with other philosophers, particularly Kierkegaard and Marx. These are finely balanced with scholarly interpretations of specific sections of the PG. Together they represent a unified and systematic study, giving yet another reminder that there is always much more to be learned from the PG.
