Hegel sees art as cultural phenomena that has deep significance for understanding reality
I read this book for a graduate seminar on the philosophy of art.F. P. B. Osmaston's book "The Philosophy of Fine Art Hegel's Lectures," is a great way to learn about G. W. F. Hegel's ideas on how art, religion, and philosophy interact and should not be seen as sharp divisions of thought.

It is important to note that the Germans look on art as more than art.They look on art as cultural phenomena that has deep significance for understanding reality and not just to study experiences and such.Hegel is reacting to the modern model of aesthetics and the expression theory of Kant.Hegel looks on art as a fundamental development of the "spirit" spirit meaning thought culture and so on.Hegel had this relation between art, religion, and philosophy by religion he means a more developed religion that has more of an element of thought in it and how it talks about the nature of the world and the creation and purpose of the world.However, art in terms of poetry and the visual arts Hegel thinks is the first form that spirit takes as a sensuous form.The idea of a sensuous medium seems to be a necessary condition, in that art is fashioned in its own kind of material into a product that communicates something.Hegel says forms of art in history come before developed systems like religion and philosophy.By that, he means the human spirit is evolving and that the first forms indicate the representing of ideas and spiritual notions of sensuous forms.He does not at all hold to the idea that art is simply the expressions of subjective faculties.Hegel thinks of art as a manifestation of elements of reality, but in an early form.This is Hegel's developmental theory that spirit progresses.Organized religion expands to getting into philosophy that gets much closer to the truth by being more conceptual and theoretical.

The important influence Hegel had is on the overall theory of Greek tragedy as an avenue to thought and not just tragedy.For example, throughout my years of studying the play "Antigone," I have been impressed by learning the fact that between Aristotle and Freud critics, philosophers and scholars have written so much about the play.There can be no doubt this is due to the fact as I have discovered "Antigone" was so successful at providing a lens for one to "see," and thus understand the essence of human life with all its tragic pitfalls.In particular, Hegel spent a considerable amount of time gleaning lessons from "Antigone"that have helped me to use it as a lens to "see" more clearly how humans have to question and ultimately choose between competing moral choices.

According to Hegel's account of Greek tragedy, Hegel did not view Greek tragedy as a collision between good and evil, but between competing goods.In addition, Hegel proposes in his interpretation of Greek tragedy, that the sufferings of the tragic hero are merely the means of reconciling the opposing moral goods--between two entirely ethical worlds that clash and cannot come together.Both Antigone and Creon have a moral vision or belief that they are destined to follow, which is the one-sidedness of their moral vision that clashes with the one-sidedness of the other character's moral vision.Both sides of contradiction are justified.Hegel finds that it is the conflict of irreconcilable yet justifiable moral worlds that will lead to the tragic death of the hero in Greek tragedy.This is an important point that Hegel makes, because I have found throughout my life that like Antigone, rarely am I given the opportunity to choose between good and evil.Usually I have been faced with the tougher moral choice of having to choose between moral goods.This is a great book that explores Hegel's philosophical writings, which opens up the world disclosiveness of Greek tragedy and the lessons they can still teach us today.

I recommend this work for anyone interested in philosophy, philosophy of art, Greek culture, and Greek tragedy.

Product Description
Die Phänomenologie des Geistes ist das 1807 veröffentlichte erste Hauptwerk des Philosophen Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. Es stellt den Ersten Theil seines Systems der Wissenschaft dar. Der „Phänomenologie“ sollte sich die Darstellung der „Realen Wissenschaften" anschließen - die „Philosophie der Natur“ und die des „Geistes“.
Titelblatt, 1807

Hegel entwickelt in dieser Wissenschaft von den Erscheinungsweisen des Geistes das Emporsteigen des Geistes von der einfachen, naiven Wahrnehmung über das Bewusstsein, das Selbstbewusstsein, die Vernunft, Geist und Geschichte, die Offenbarung bis hin zum absoluten Wissen des Weltgeistes. Dabei untersucht er das Werden der Wissenschaft als Einheit von Inhalt und Methode sowie die Erscheinungen des Geistes als Verwirklichung unseres Selbst, als Einheit von Sein und Nichts ebenso wie als absolute Ganzheit. Ort der Wahrheit ist dabei der Begriff im wissenschaftlichen System und nicht die Anschauung. Die Erkenntnis der Wahrheit liegt in der Einsicht, dass die Gegensätzlichkeit von Subjekt und Objekt dialektisch auf einem höheren Niveau aufgehoben wird, da das eine nicht ohne das andere existiert, beide also eine Einheit bilden.

Das Werk setzt sich sowohl mit erkenntnistheoretischen als auch ethischen und geschichtsphilosophischen Grundfragen auseinander. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist die Rezeption des Kapitels über das Selbstbewusstsein, das die dialektische Betrachtung von Herrschaft und Knechtschaft enthält und ein wesentlicher Ausgangspunkt für Marx' Beschäftigung mit der Analyse der Klassenverhältnisse in der bürgerlichen Gesellschaft war.

Four books in one
This, along with vols II and III, is a remarkable and admirable work of scholarship. Hegel delivered his then unique course on the Philosophy of Religion on four occasions between 1821 and 1831. These three volumes essentially present all four lecture series.Although similarities run throughout, it is the development in his thought and change in emphasis (depending upon who was attacking him at the moment) that add to the fascination of this work.The footnotes are thorough.Comparatively easy to follow.Uniquely Hegelian mind stretching thought. Permeated with Hegel's own encyclopedic knowledge of everything (our Aristotle). Complements the Phenomenology and Logic. The Divine Spirit sees via us, and the resultant backflow is the Holy Spirit: that trinity again. ... Read more
