| George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel has seldom been considered a major figure in the history of logic. His two texts on logic, both called The Science of Logic, both written in Hegelâ s characteristically dense and obscure language, are often considered more as works of metaphysics than logic. But in this highly readable book, John Burbidge sets out to reclaim Hegelâ s Science of Logic as logic and to get right at the heart of Hegelâ s thought. Burbidge examines the way Hegel moves from concept to concept through every chapter of his work, and traces the origins of Hegelâ s effort to â think through the way thought thinksâ to Plato, Kant, and Fichte. Having established the framework of Hegelâ s logical thought, Burbidge demonstrates how Hegel organized the rest of his system, including the Philosophy of Nature, Philosophy of Spirit and his Lectures on World History, Art, Religion and Philosophy. A final section discusses English-language interpretations of Hegelâ s logic from the nineteenth through twentieth centuries. Burbidgeâ s The Logic of Hegelâ s â Logicâ is written with an eye to the reader of general interests, avoiding as much as possible the use of Hegelâ s technical vocabulary. It is an excellent introduction to an otherwise very difficult text, and has recently appeared in an Iranian translation. |
