Hegel's India

Více o knize

Presenting all of Hegel's writings on and about India, this work shows how much effort Hegel expended on what he ultimately characterised merely as fantastic, subjective, wild, dreamy, frenzied, absurd, and repetitive. If Indian art, religion, and philosophy, are so grossly inadequate, what explains his life-long fascination in this unparalleled way? This reinterpretation of Hegel argues that Indian thought haunted Hegel, representing a sort of nemesis to his own philosophy.
