Logic Of Desire - Peter Kalkavage

Peter Kalkavages The Logic Of Desire Guides The Reader Through Hegels Great Work. Given The Books Legendary Difficulty, One May Well Ask, Why Even Try To Read The Phenomenology? In His Preface, Kalkavage Explains Why He Thinks A Reader Should Try: There Is Much To Commend The Study Of Hegel: His Attentiveness To The Deepest, Most Fundamental Questions Of Philosophy, His Uncompromising Pursuit Of Truth, His Amazing Gift For Characterisation And Critique, His Appreciation For The Grand Sweep Of Things And The Large View, His Profound Admiration For All That Is Heroic, Especially For The Ancient Greeks, Those Heroes Of Thought In Whom The Philosophic Spirit First Dawned, His Penetrating Gaze Into Modernity In All Its Forms, His Enormous Breadth Of Interests, And His Audacious Claim To Have Captured Absolute Knowing In A Thoroughly Rational Account.
