GEORG WILHELM FRIEDRICH HEGEL Heidelberg Writings
The purpose of the Cambridge Hegel Translations is to offer trans- lations of the best modern German editions of Hegel’s work in a uniform format suitable for Hegel scholars, together with philosoph- ical introductions and full editorial apparatus. This work brings together, for the first time in English translation, Hegel’s journal publications from his years in Heidelberg (1816–18), writings which have been previously either untranslated or only par- tially translated into English. The Heidelberg years marked Hegel’s return to university teaching and represented an important transi- tion in his life and thought. The translated texts include his impor- tant reassessment of the works of the philosopher F.H. Jacobi, whose engagement with Spinozism, especially, was of decisive significance for the philosophical development of German Idealism. They also include his most influential writing about contemporary political events, his essay on the constitutional assembly in his native Wurttemberg,¨ which was written against the background of the dramatic political and social changes occurring in post-Napoleonic Germany. The translators have provided an introduction and notes that offer a scholarly commentary on the philosophical and political background of Hegel’s Heidelberg writings.
