The Origin And Significance Of Hegel S Logic

Excerpt from The Origin and Significance of Hegel's Logic: A General Introduction to Hegel's System IT will greatly facilitate the appreciation of the history of Hegel's views on Logic if at the outset we give some indication of his attitude to the problem of philosophy as a whole, the direction from which he approached philosophy, and the primary influences which helped to determine the course of his mental development. Hegel's earliest conception of the nature of Logic has at least this in common with his latest, that Logic is no mere appendage or accident in his general system, but an integral element of it. The statement, therefore, of his general philosophical point of view will throw no inconsiderable light on his theory of Logic.

Excerpt from The Origin and Significance of Hegel's Logic: A General Introduction to Hegel's System The student of Hegel usually finds the Logic the most forbidding and impossible part of the System. At the same time he is aware, not merely from Hegel's own statements, but from the general nature of Hegel's philosophy, that unless he can discover the clue to the tale of the categories, Hegel's System will remain for the most part a sealed secret. In his perplexity he generally abandons, after a short struggle, the effort to understand the System, and regards it either with contempt or despair according to his temperament. The difficulties felt are due partly to the strangeness of the System, the absence of apparent points of contact with ordinary thought, and partly also to the fact that Hegel has made no confession regarding the path which led him to his final result. Other difficulties of course remain, even when the preliminary obstacles are overcome; but they are of a different kind and hardly so paralysing to continued interest.
