It can if one has in mind a certain picture of the relation of analytic philosophy to ‘German idealism’. This particular picture has been called analytic philosophy’s ‘creation myth’, and it was effectively established by Bertrand Russell in his various accounts of 2 the birth of the ‘new philosophy’ around the turn of the twentieth century.

  • Hegel and Pragmatism Paul Redding While Professional Philosophy As
    Hegel and Pragmatism Paul Redding While professional philosophy as practiced in the English-speaking world over the last hundred years has, for the most part, been hostile to Hegel and “German idealism”, exceptions are to be found within the American “pragmatist” tradition. Among the founders of pragmatism, strongly Hegelian themes can be found in the work of John Dewey (1859–1952), George Herbert Mead (1863–1931) and, to some extent, Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914). By the mid-twentieth century, however, the influence of “classical” pragmatism within philosophy had waned, while the “analytic” approach to philosophy, traceable back to founding figures such as Bertrand Russell, G. E. Moore, and Ludwig Wittgenstein, was becoming institutionally dominant within most of the English-speaking world. Analytic philosophy had started as a reaction against Hegelianism, and so Hegel’s influence might have seemed to have come to an end, but recently a generally more favourable orientation towards Hegel’s philosophy has once again emerged within the type of “analytic pragmatism” associated with the American philosopher Wilfrid Sellars (1912–89). Sellars himself had been at best ambivalent towards Hegel, and aligned his own philosophy more with the approach of Kant whose “transcendental idealism” he tried to give a “scientific realist” twist.1 Among his followers, however, Richard Rorty attempted to promote the discernible “Hegelian” dimension of Sellars’s work and extract this from Sellars’s “realist” aspirations, that he criticized in ways drawing

  • Idealism: a Love (Of Sophia) That Dare Not Speak Its Name
    Idealism: A Love (of Sophia) that Dare not Speak its Name PAUL REDDINl;' My first experience of philosophy at the University of Sydney was as a commencing undergraduate in the tumultuous year of 1973. At the start of that year, there was one department of philosophy, but by the beginning of the next there were two. These two departments seemed to be opposed in every possible way except one: they both professed to be committed to a form of materialist philosophy. One could think that having a common enemy at least might have been the cause for some degree of unanimity, but no: the traditional enemy of materialism - idealism - was regarded as having been long dead and buried. For the Marxists in the then Department of General Philosophy, it had been Marx who, in the second half of the nineteenth century, had 'inverted' Hegelian idealism into a form of materialism, while for the analytic philosophers in the Department of Traditional and Modern Philosophy, it had been Bertrand Russell and G. E. Moore who had triumphed over British idealism at the turn of the twentieth. There may have been many things that were atypical about philosophy as it was done at Sydney in the early 1970s, but its resistance to idealism was not among them. Twenty years later, however, there were signs that old certitudes in Anglophone philosophy were changing, and in 1994, two books were published by mainstream analytic philosophers addressing issues central to analytic concern and suggesting that the philosophy of Hegel held the key to their solution. These books were Mind and World * Paul Redding holds a Personal Chair in Philosophy at the University of Sydney.

  • German Idealism by Espen Hammer
    GERMAN IDEALISM German Idealism is one of the most important movements in the history of philosophy. It is also increasingly acknowledged to contain the seeds of many current philosophical issues and debates. This outstanding collection of spe- cially commissioned chapters examines German idealism from several angles and assesses the renewed interest in the subject from a wide range of fields. Including discussions of the key representatives of German idealism such as Kant, Fichte and Hegel, it is structured in clear sections dealing with: metaphysics the legacy of Hegel’s philosophy Brandom and Hegel recognition and agency autonomy and nature the philosophy of German romanticism Amongst other important topics, German Idealism: Contemporary Perspectives addresses the debates surrounding the metaphysical and epistemological legacy of German idealism; its importance for understanding recent debates in moral and political thought; its appropriation in recent theories of language and the relationship between mind and world; and how German idealism affected sub- sequent movements such as romanticism, pragmatism, and critical theory.

  • God Incarnation and Metaphysics Article Draft
    God, Incarnation, and Metaphysics in Hegel’s Philosophy of Religion Paolo Diego Bubbio University of Sydney Article-draft, April 17, 2012. Please do not quote without permissions. Comments are warmly welcome: [email protected] Abstract In this paper, I draw upon the ‘post-Kantian’ reading of Hegel to examine the consequences Hegel’s idea of God has for understanding his metaphysics. In particular, I apply Hegel’s ‘recognition-theoretic’ approach to his theology. Within the context of this analysis, I focus especially on the incarnation and sacrifice of Christ. First, I claim that Hegel’s philosophy of religion employs a peculiar notion of sacrifice ( kenotic sacrifice). Here, sacrifice is conceived as a withdrawal , that is, as a ‘making room’ for the other. Second, I argue that the idea of kenotic sacrifice plays a fundamental role in Hegel’s account of Christ. Third, I conclude by sketching some of the consequences Hegel’s idea of a God who renounces his own divinity has for an idealistically conceived metaphysics. My main thesis is that Hegel’s turn to Christianity can be regarded as indicative of his endorsement of social and political freedoms that are characteristic of modernity. That is, modern freedoms are cognate with a certain idea of God. Thus, the notion of incarnation is conceived as the expression of a spirit that advances only insofar as it is willing to withdraw and make room for the other. Introduction Hegel scholarship in the Anglophone world has recently witnessed the establishment of new approaches that aim to show the relevance and topicality of a thought that, for a long time, was often considered one of the most abstract, or even lunatic, instances 1 of a philosophical school (Idealism) that was often regarded as incapable of offering any significant contribution to contemporary thought.

  • Hegel's Revival in Analytic Philosophy
    deVries for OUP Handbook of Hegel Page 1 Hegel's Revival in Analytic Philosophy Willem A. deVries University of New Hampshire Abstract Analytic philosophy is rediscovering Hegel. This essay examines a particularly strong thread of new analytic Hegelianism, sometimes called ‘Pittsburgh Hegelianism’, which began with the work of Wilfrid Sellars. In trying to bring Anglo-American philosophy from its empiricist phase into a more sophisticated, corrected Kantianism, Sellars moved in substantially Hegelian directions. Sellars’ work has been extended, and revised by his Pittsburgh colleagues John McDowell and Robert B. Brandom. The sociality and historicity of reason, the proper treatment of space and time, conceptual holism, inferentialism, the reality of conceptual structure, the structure of experience, and the nature of normativity are the central concerns of Pittsburgh Hegelianism. Keywords G. W. F. Hegel, Wilfrid Sellars, John McDowell, Robert Brandom, Pittsburgh Hegelianism, analytic philosophy, sociality and historicity of reason, conceptual holism, inferentialism, conceptual realism, structure of experience, normativity I. Introduction: Analytic Philosophy contra Hegel The analytic tradition dominant in Anglo-American philosophy was born in part in a revolt deVries for OUP Handbook of Hegel Page 2 against the neo-Hegelianism that was fairly dominant in English-speaking lands at the end of the 19th century. Throughout much of the 20th century, Hegel was not merely shunned but also scorned and derided as the exemplar of all that analytic philosophy abjured. However, a significant revival of interest in Hegel’s philosophy among analytically oriented philosophers has recently emerged and continues to grow. Opposition to 19th century the (neo-)Hegelian idealism took several forms.

  • Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit
    HEGEL’S PHENOMENOLOGY OF SPIRIT Hegel only published five books in his lifetime, and among them the Phenomenology of Spirit emerges as the most important, but also perhaps the most difficult and complex. In this book Ludwig Siep follows the path from Hegel’s early writings on religion, love, and spirit to the milestones of his “Jena period.” He shows how the themes of the Phenomenology first appeared in an earlier work, The Difference between Fichte’s and Schelling’s Systems of Philosophy, and closely examines the direction which Hegel’s thought took as he attempted to think through the possibility of a complete system of philosophy. The themes encompassed by the Phenom- enology – anti-dualistic epistemology, autonomy, historicality, the sociality of reason – are thoroughly discussed in Siep’s subtle and elegantly argued assessment, which appears here in English for the first time. It will be of great interest to all readers studying Hegel’s thought. ludwig siep is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität, Münster, Germany. He was coeditor, with Walter Jaeschke, of the yearbook Hegel-Studien (Hegel Studies) between 2003 and 2012 and his most recent publications include Aktualität und Grenzen der praktischen Philosophie Hegels (2010).

  • Hegel, Idealism and God: Philosophy As the Self-Correcting Appropriation of the Norms of Life and Thought Paul Redding
    Cosmos and History: The Journal of Natural and Social Philosophy, vol. 3, nos. 2-3, 2007 HEGEL, IDEALISM AND GOD: PHILOSOphY AS THE SELF-CORRECTING AppROPRIATION OF THE NORMS OF LIFE AND THOUGHT Paul Redding ABSTR A CT : Can Hegel, a philosopher who claims that philosophy ‘has no other object but God and so is essentially rational theology’, ever be taken as anything other than a religious philosopher with little to say to any philosophical project that identifies itself assecular ? If the valuable substantive insights found in the detail of Hegel’s philosophy are to be rescued for a secular philosophy, then, it is commonly presupposed, some type of global reinterpretation of the enframing idealistic framework is required. In this essay, this assumption is challenged. Kant’s interpretation of space and time as a response to Newton’s theologically based spatio- temporal realism is taken as a model of what it is to be a Kantian idealist about God and the self. In turn, Hegel’s philosophy is taken as a development of this approach that overcomes the limitations of Kant’s formal approach. Hegel’s major contribution to Kant’s revolutionary transformation of the task of philosophy is, it is argued, his recognitive conception of ‘spirit’. While this has been widely appreciated with regard to the relations between ‘subjective’ and ‘objective’ spirit, it is suggested that a fuller understanding of the nature of Hegel’s absolute idealism requires a proper understanding of how this approach also applies to the domain of ‘absolute spirit’.

  • Some Metaphysical Implications of Hegel's
    SOME METAPHYSICAL IMPLICATIONS OF HEGEL’S THEOLOGY PAUL REDDING University of Sydney Abstract. This paper examines Hegel’s claim that philosophy “has no other object than God” as a claim about the essentiality of the idea of God to philosophy. On this idealist interpretation, even atheistic philosophies would presuppose rationally evaluable ideas of God, despite denials of the existence of anything corresponding to those ideas. This interpretation is then applied to Hegel’s version of idealism in relation to those of two predecessors, Leibniz and Kant. Hegel criticizes the idea of the Christian God present within his predecessors in terms of his own heterodox reading of the Trinity in order to resolve a paradox affecting them – the “paradox of perspectivism”. Hegel makes claims about the relation of philosophy to religion that might raise concerns for those who want to locate his philosophy generally within the modern enlightenment tradition. For example, at the outset of his Lectures on Aesthetics he claims that philosophy “has no other object but God and so is essentially rational theology”.1 What might seem to placate worries here is that Hegel of course differentiates between the forms of religious and philosophical cognition in which such a content is presented: while religion grasps this content in the form of imagistic 1 G.

  • Hegelian Analytic Philosophy: P. Redding's
    HEGELIAN ANALYTIC PHILOSOPHY: P. REDDING'S READING OF HEGEL 1 2 AGEMIR BAVARESCO AND ANDREW COOPER Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul. Brazil University of Sydney ABSTRACT: The classic analytic tradition associated the philosophy of George Berkeley with idealism. Yet in terms of the German Idealismus, Berkeley was no idealist. Rather, he described himself as an “immaterialist”. In the classic analytic tradition we find a misunderstanding of the German Idealismus. This paper will suggest, through reference to the work of Paul Redding, that Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit presents Idealismus as that which reconciles objectivity and subjectivity in the experience of consciousness. Hegel’s Phenomenology develops this idea in the elaboration of a remarkably novel theory of consciousness. For Hegel, the conditions of the possibility of the objects of experience are a dialectical movement between consciousness and the object, or immediacy and mediacy. In the whole movement of consciousness we have the logic of contradiction working at the back of phenomenological experience that Hegel will make explicit in the Science of Logic, a logic that involves the thinker becoming consciously aware of their own thought processes. Yet Hegel’s Logic is different from the common meaning of ‘logic’. His Logic is not a formal approach to valid inference but captures the method and the moments and movement of logic. For Hegel, the great problem of classical logic is the immobility of the categories. This paper proposes that Hegel’s ‘holism’ entails the description wherein Logic, Nature, and Spirit are articulated as a whole in dialectical movement. KEYWORDS: Analytic Philosophy.

  • Hegelian Analytic Philosophy According to P. Redding*
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 3 No. 17; September 2013 Hegelian Analytic Philosophy According to P. Redding* Agemir Bavaresco Professor Department of Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS) Brazil Andrew Cooper PhD Candidate University of Sydney Australia Abstract The classic analytic tradition has often made the error of associating idealism with the philosophy of George Berkeley. Yet in terms of the German Idealismus, Berkeley was no idealist. Rather, he described himself as an “immaterialist”. According to Paul Redding, this error made by the classic analytic tradition warrants a reconsideration of the German Idealismus. The aim of this paper is to argue that, through reference to the work of Paul Redding, Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit presents Idealismus as that which reconciles objectivity and subjectivity in the experience of consciousness. Hegel’sPhenomenology develops this idea in the elaboration of a remarkably novel theory of consciousness.
