Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion: Volume III: The Consummate Religion: Consummate Religion v. 3

Description

The Hegel Lectures Series Series Editor: Peter C. Hodgson Hegel's lectures have had as great a historical impact as the works he himself published. Important elements of his system are elaborated only in the lectures, especially those given in Berlin during the last decade of his life. The original editors conflated materials from different sources and dates, obscuring the development and logic of Hegel's thought. The Hegel Lectures series is based on a selection of extant and recently discovered transcripts and manuscripts. Lectures from specific years are reconstructed so that the structure of Hegel's argument can be followed. Each volume presents an accurate new translation accompanied by an editorial introduction and annotations on the text, which make possible the identification of Hegel's many allusions and sources. Hegel's Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion represent the final and in some ways the decisive element of his entire philosophical system. His conception and execution of the lectures differed significantly on each of the occasions he delivered them, in 1821, 1824, 1827, and 1831. The older editions introduced insoluble problems by conflating these materials into an editorially constructed text. The present volumes establish a critical edition by separating the series of lectures and presenting them as independent units on the basis of a complete re-editing of the sources by Walter Jaeschke. The English translation has been prepared by a team consisting of Robert F. Brown, Peter C. Hodgson, and J. Michael Stewart, with the assistance of H. S. Harris. Now widely recognized as the definitive English edition, it is being reissued by Oxford in the Hegel Lectures Series. The three volumes include editorial introductions, critical annotations on the text, textual variants, and tables, bibliography, and glossary"The Consummate Religion" is Hegel's name for Christianity, which he also designates "the Contents Abbreviations, Signs, And Symbols Frequently Cited Works Introduction Hegel's Lecture Manuscript The Lectures Of 1824 The Lectures Of 1827 APPENDIXES THE ONTOLOGICAL PROOF ACCORDING TO THE LECTURES OF1831 The Lectures Of EXCERPTS BY DAVID FRIEDRICH STRAUSS FROM A TRANSCRIPT OF THE LECTURES OF 1831 The Lectures Of 1831 LOOSE SHEETS RELATING TO HEGEL'S LECTURE MANUSCRIPT FRAGMENTS FROM THE MICHELET TRANSCRIPTS PAGINATION OF THE ORIGINAL SOURCES Glossary Index BIBLICAL REFERENCES Index NAMES AND SUBJECTS Errata
