PHI 8340 Hegel’s Encyclopaedia: Logic, Nature, Spirit
This is the only place where Hegel’s system is presented in its entirety, though largely in outline form. The central questions of Hegel’s thought are, What is human rationality? What are the cultural conditions for its maximal flourishing? What kind of universe is required for such existence? Logic in the broad sense presents the interlocking conditions for answering such questions. Its general form is found in Nature operating in the principle of externality and in human Spirit, in terms of the principle of identity-in-difference between Spirit and embodiment, between individual and community, between man and God and within God Himself.
