Riassunto

For many years, scholars in German idealism have known that a number of the views of Hegel rife in the Anglo-Saxon world are highly inaccurate. However, that knowledge has not penetrated very far beyond specialist circles, and much of Hegel's reputation continues to be based on the unquestioning acceptance of misconceptions and distortions of his life and work. The essays collected in The Hegel Myths and Legends serve the function of disabusing students and nonspecialists of these misconceptions by exposing these myths for what they are.
Jon Stewart has selected a set of essays that treat and effectively debunk the various Hegel myths and legends. The volume presents contributions from leading American and European Hegel scholars of several different generations, each of which treats one or more of the Hegel myths. The essays offer clear historical accounts of the origin and development of the various misconceptions as well as refutations of them based on the results of contemporary Hegel scholarship. Divided into sections addressing the various myths and augmented by Stewart's informative introduction and an extensive bibliography, this collection is of interest to scholars and nonspecialists alike.
