This accessible and highly readable book is the first full-length
biography of Hegel to be published since the largely outdated
treatments of the nineteenth century. Althaus draws on new
historical material and scholarly sources about the life and times
of this most enigmatic and influential of modern philosophers. He
paints a living portrait of a thinker whose personality was more
complex than is often imagined, and shows that Hegel's relation to
his revolutionary times was also more ambiguous than is usually
accepted.

Althaus presents a broad chronological narrative of Hegel's
development from his early theological studies in Tübingen and
the associated unpublished writings, profoundly critical of the
established religious orthodoxies. He traces Hegel's years of
philosophical apprenticeship with Schelling in Jena as he struggled
for an independent intellectual position, up to the crowning period
of influence and success in Berlin where Hegel appeared as the
advocate of the modern Prussian state. Althaus tells a vivid story
of Hegel's life and his intellectual and personal crises, drawing
generously on the philosopher's own words from his extensive
correspondence. His central role in the cultural and political life
of the time is illuminated by the impressions and responses of his
contemporaries, such as Schelling, Schleiermacher and Goethe.

This panoramic introduction to Hegel's life, work and times will
be a valuable resource for scholars, students and anyone interested
in this towering figure of philosophy.

Horst Althaus is a researcher at the archive of Cologne University.

Bibliography.

Index.

"Brevity turns out to be one of Althaus's merits. He is
particularly good at providing the necessary historical and
sociological details so that the reader can appreciate the full
significance of events in Hegel's life as well as his thought.this
study provides a great deal of insight into what life was like for
many thinkers and artists during this intellectually fruitful time
in Germany's history. Althaus's biography is eminently readable and
thus useful not only for researchers but also for graduate
students, faculty and general readers."

--S. Barnett, Central Connecticut State University,
(Choice Magazine)

"[Althaus] contextualizes Hegel's intellectual journey.... A
major theme in Althaus is the disintegration of Hegel's following,
into left and right, through the ambiguity of his dialectic,
exemplified in his philosophy of religion." (History of
Political Thought)

"Althaus offers a wide-ranging 'intellectual biography' which
skilfully interweaves scenes, events and personalities from Hegel's
life with studies of the formation, development, and significance
of each of Hegel's particular philosophical concerns ... If one
seeks further to understand Hegel and his thought, then I recommend
turning to Althaus." (Heythrop Journal)

"This book is, in a word, the most comprehensive biography of
Hegel published in the twentieth century." (Diálogo
Filosófico)
