Description: The Hegel Variations by Fredric Jameson New in paperback: Master philosopher and cultural theorist tackles the founder of modern dialectics FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In this major new study, the philosopher and cultural theorist Fredric Jameson offers a new reading of Hegels foundational text Phenomenology of Spirit.In contrast to those who see the Phenomenology as a closed system ending with Absolute Spirit, Jamesons reading presents an open work in which Hegel has not yet reconstituted himself in terms of a systematic philosophy (Hegelianism) and in which the moments of the dialectic and its levels have not yet been formalized. Hegels text executes a dazzling variety of changes on conceptual relationships, in terms with are never allowed to freeze over and become reified in purely philosophical named concepts. The ending, on the aftermath of the French Revolution, is interpreted by Jameson, contra Fukuyamas "end of history," as a provisional stalemate between the political and the social, which is here extrapolated to our own time.
