Phenomenology of spirit

Book • 1998

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

In 'Phenomenology of Spirit', Hegel outlines the fundamental nature and conditions of human knowledge and consciousness.

The work is structured into several categories, including consciousness, self-consciousness, reason, spirit, religion, and absolute knowing.

Hegel argues that knowledge emerges through a dialectical process where consciousness moves from sense-certainty to perception and then to understanding.

He also examines the social and collective aspects of consciousness, highlighting the struggle for recognition and the development of self-awareness.

The book culminates in the concept of absolute knowing, where the subject and object are unified, and the individual is fully integrated into the collective spirit.
