Abstract

George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel was one of the founders of the philosophical movement known as German idealism. He is best known for his dialectical theories which inspired many later philosophers, most famously Karl Marx. Born in Stuttgart in southwestern Germany, to Georg Ludwig and Maria Magdalena Louisa Fromm Hegel, he read the works of Enlightenment authors and followed the events of the French Revolution with enthusiasm. He taught at universities in Jena, Heidelberg, and Berlin and published four books – Phenomenology of Spirit (1807) (also known as Phenomenology of Mind ), Science of Logic (1811, 1812, 1816), Encyclopedia of the Philosophical Sciences (1816), and Elements of the Philosophy of Right (1822).
