Opis

Michael Quante focuses on what Hegel has to say about such central concepts as action, person and will, and then brings these views to bear on contemporary debates in analytic philosophy. This book enables professional analytic philosophers and their students to understand the significance of Hegel's philosophy to contemporary theory of action. As such, it will contribute to the ever-increasing erosion of the barrier between the continental and analytic approaches to philosophy.

Recenzje

'The book is exceptionally clear and well-written, the project is original and provocative, and the contribution to our understanding of both Hegel and agency is substantial.' Wayne Martin, University of California, San Diego
