Hegel's Master Trick: Immediacy as the Beginning of Thought

In this second part of their conversation, PJ and Dr. Thomas Raysmith continue to discuss his book: Hegel and the Problem of the History of Philosophy: The Logical Structure of Exemplarity. Together they explore the methodologies in philosophy, the historical context of Hegel's thought, and the misconceptions surrounding his ideas. Dr. Raysmith emphasizes the importance of understanding Hegel's logical structure and the concept of exemplarity, culminating in the idea that philosophy is a dynamic and historically-situated process.
