Hegel's Speculative Good Friday
The Death of God in Philosophical Perspective

Anderson, Deland S.

Description

In this book, Deland S. Anderson traces the origin of the idea, "God is dead," in the philosophy of G. W. F. Hegel. Focusing on issues of language, life, and learning, Anderson presents an integrated perspective on the death of God in Hegel’s philosophy as it emerged in the early years at Jena. He argues that Hegel’s pronouncement of the death of God was the beginning of his radically innovative system of speculative discourse, which revolutionized not only philosophy but the wider culture as well.
