FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Sally Sedgwick presents a fresh account of Hegels critique of Kants theoretical philosophy. She argues that Hegel offers a compelling critique of and alternative to the conception of cognition that Kant defended in his Critical period. The book examines key features of what Kant identifies as the discursive character of our mode of cognition, and considers Hegels reasons for arguing that these features condemn Kants theoretical philosophy to scepticism aswell as dualism. Sedgwick goes on to present in a sympathetic light Hegels claim to derive from certain Kantian doctrines clues to a superior form of idealism, a form of idealism that better capturesthe nature of our cognitive powers and their relation to objects.

There has been much written on the Hegel-Kant relation, especially in recent times--exactly what does Hegel wants to abandon in Kant? What does he want to preserve? To what extent is his approach a Kantian one?--but I cannot think of another work which does this so clearly and with such conceptually articulated detail. Hegels Critique of Kantwill surely make an important contribution to an area of Kant-Hegel scholarship that is of contemporary interest and around which there exists considerable controversy.Paul Redding, University of Sydney`[Her reading] does much to dispel some of the cruder characterizations of Hegels criticisms of Kant, and to show that these criticisms are deeper than often supposed . . . [The book] will therefore clearly make a considerable mark on any future debates in this area, and I would expect it to become a central point of reference.Robert Stern, British Journal of the History of Philosophy`The book is carefully argued and gives the most comprehensive account yet of Hegels engagement with Kants theoretical philosophy . . .

The book offers an original thesis with characteristic clarity, fine conceptual articulation and an expository style that combines the virtues of immanent interpretations with those of reconstructive ones. Careful reading of the primary texts is put to the service of showing what is true in our philosophical past."--Katerina Deligiorgi, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Feature Ground-breaking work on the history of German philosophySheds new light on a subject of contemporary interest and controversyRigorous, focused, and detailed--an important contribution Details ISBN019870805X Author Sally Sedgwick Pages 208 Year 2014 ISBN-10 019870805X ISBN-13 9780198708056 Format Paperback Media Book Subtitle From Dichotomy to Identity Place of Publication Oxford Country of Publication United Kingdom DEWEY 193 Short Title HEGELS CRITIQUE OF KANT Language English Illustrations black & white illustrations UK Release Date 2014-08-07 AU Release Date 2014-08-07 NZ Release Date 2014-08-07 Illustrator Qu Lan Edited by John R.
