内容简介:
Clark Butler presents an innovative analysis of Hegel's most challenging work in "Hegel's Logic" -- the first major English-language treatment of Hegel's "Science of Logic" to appear in nearly fifteen years. Although earlier commentators on the "Logic" have considered standard analytical philosophy-and with it modern logic-in opposition to Hegel. Butler views it as a legitimate approach in terms of which Hegel needs to be understood. This interpretation allows him to address the rigor of Hegel's thought on several levels as at once an exercise in purely conceptual redefinition and a full-bodied work in metaphysical ontology and even theology. The result is an account of the "Logic" intelligible to analytical philosophers as well as non-specialists.
