"Hegel put me off by his language, as arrogant as it was laborious; I regarded him with downright mistrust. He seemed to me like a man who was caged in the edifice of his own words and was pompously gesticulating in prison." Carl G. Jung My thoughts are that Hegel was full of shit and employed that tactic of not being clear to make of himself great, by pretending and creating a language that if nobody could understood it was because they weren't smart enough to understand and made himself into a riddle on purpose. And maybe that is the main influence some nasty intellectuals got from him, elements of deception. Besides some few useful concepts. That's just my theory based on the reflection I quoted.

Anyway after searching for a while I found this video to describe his philosophy (I could only remember his names started with an ‘H’). It’s still not easily comprehendable but it sounds like he is biting a little off of aristotle who said things have a mean. Anything in excess or lacking is not balanced and thus we have to find a balance in everything.

Even though I know little about Hegel, I'm quite sure that one of the most valuable lessons that his work can teach you is the fact that we need each other to know what we are and develop our "true" self-consciousness. This video should have explained this as well.

An advice to everyone who wishes to read Hegel's greatest book The Phenomenology Of The Spirit; you should start first with his other book, Philosophy Of History, where he sees ancient empires as moments in the evolution of the Total Spirit, and this is the golden key to his imposing and magestic phenomenological conception. After reading his lectures on the history of Philosophy and his aesthetic theory, go straight to Logic part 1and 2. Don't be overwhelmed by the title, it's really a great read, in it he talks about great cultural events; empty logical categories have no meaning for Hegel. Wish you good luck sisters and brothers, read Hegel for he is the summit of western metaphysics.

I discovered that if I could identify and silence my reaction of annoyance and resistance at reading what appeared to be the same sentence only structured slightly differently over and over again, and then learned to not try so hard to keep all concepts from the start of a paragraph, in a place in my mind where I could consciously remember them all and follow the the links and associations that were being made, then suddenly, reading a page became like the written equivalent of a magic-eye picture of the kind that forms a 3d image when you disengage your standard focus reflex and allow the edges to blur... Not in a pictorial sense like using text characters to render an image but within my mind if the words moved at a steady pace and weren't held back then a blurring of meaning began to take place and I learned that it didn't matter if the concepts fell away into the back of my awareness as they would be contained in the next sentence too... the writing style was doing the job normally done by the 'working memory' or biological version of 'RAM' in the brain which, instead of doing that task as per usual, my conscious awareness had the image of some simple but definitely 3 dimensional geometric shapes forming. It was quite unlike any other book I read and I really wish I had not tried so hard to force it to make sense at every step in the standard way, when I first picked it up, because that was exhausting!

+Graham Loines This is excellent. People assume that Hegel was being cryptic on purpose. But I think his language speaks to us on a different level- one that requires a well-trained mind to read into. Just as I wouldn't dismiss Calculus because the average person who doesn't have a solid grasp on Algebra doesn't understand it, so too is it irrational to dismiss Hegel because many people have a hard time understanding him. He wrote of many different concepts that the video didn't touch on. Studying Hegel is an exercise of the mind and intellect. It teaches us that philosophy should be read carefully and analyzed critically, instead of mindlessly consumed.

KikomochiMendoza I have received similar feedback before! It's quite similar to criticism of Hegel's style... but also a potential hazard with attempts at posting conversationally in a KZread comments section... I think! I'm not an academic and recognise that there are certain structural elements lacking which, would perhaps be habitually included by someone who is regularly submitting work for formal assessment. But... I do enjoy delineating in a flowing way when the mood takes me, especially if I'm ranting... long sentences, sparsely, perhaps incorrectly punctuated, to invite the reader to perform some mental agility in order to keep up, without letting up, relentlessly moving forward but implying that a pause is coming up only to fly right past the opportunity, just to see if the reader managed to keep up and then as I am recalibrating my sense of direction, so as to allow adjustments to my trajectory and slamming on the brakes if necessary (maybe too late... ) without warning... and sliding spectacularly close to the limit.... waiting for the next check-point to come into view (I might just make it after all.... it's gonna be close though...) and then hitting the accelerator as soon as I'm pointing in the right direction... and repeating the process until I have visited each checkpoint and I feel fully expressed! Sometimes it ends up making sense and other times it's just a mess... I can laugh at it either way, and as no grades are going to be affected, might as well write in the way that i like and all the better if it's unexpected! Perhaps I'll install Grammarly sometime in the near future if I am likely to write more regularly... Make it all a little easier on the reader... What do you think...? Good idea?... :)

The Manifold Curiosity To be honest with you and everyone, sure this video INTERPRETS his philosophy in a nice manner, but it doesn't -of course- begin to engulf its entirety at any good level. Hegel's philosophy goes way beyond this and in many ways diverges from the narrator's perspectives. With all respect to Alain (who is nonetheless a great speaker), this just falls into an interpretation of the thinker -and this applies to each philosopher and author they cover- and accommodates the thought into their convenience (with the 'optimist' philosophy they are trying to shove).

All I know is even Hegelian dialectics can't explain why the Kardashians are famous.

I believe Hegel's prose is really hard to grasp. However, it is not unnecessary as some of you have argued. Hegel's work is way more than just a couple of points. He tried to critically overcome Kant's ideas in order to give us a new comprehension of the world around us. When Hegel argued about history, he doesn't believe exactly that it could be just "useful" to look back and remember something. For him, concepts and reality itself gain meaningful content through processes. In other words, things are now as they are because they were what they were. This idea is specially important for him, because points out that the study of history, in regards to the observer works as a play in a theater in which the observer already knows the end of it. Those who study history, while they do it, know what is going to happen. But the notion of knowing the resolution lets you see the intricate connection between two facts and the possibility of deeper relation between them. Through that, he proposes dialectics as a method of understanding that deeper connection between history and man as a result of history. Because he believed, against Kant assumption, that because things are not presented to us (humans) directly though our senses, it doesn't mean that we can't have access to that other side of reality (absolute). So, in his works, he tries to build reality through his method, in a way in which you can only understand the entirety by observing its entirety. Many readers and academics who work with Hegel will tell you that once you reach the last chapter of the Phenomonology of the Spirit, things just clicked, and a second reading is immediately necessary, for those things that did not make any sense suddenly are comprehensible. And that is not Hegel's prose fault, is is a particular circular way of presenting ideas at the same time than a method. A method that is not easy to understand, but is full of tools to better comprehend reality as an object which resides in society at the same time that society in reality. As Hegel said "philosophy can only be learned by doing philosophy." A last thing. Hegel was a Liberal who argued, during the french revolution, that the principle of Monarchy was the best way to care for liberty and individual rights. You can be in favor or against that idea, but Hegel thought of it because of the particularities of its time. He was profoundly Liberal. The stories say that when he was a Teacher, he used to gather at night with his students to hold conversations about liberty and the french revolution in a time when those practices were strongly prohibited. And one day, one of his students was caught and imprison for divulge Liberal ideas on a public space. As a result, Hegel and his students went on a boat, every other night, to speak to this student imprisoned to speak about Liberal ideas and the news regarding the french in latin (in order to avoid being caught).

Hegel isn't THAT hard to read. At least in german i guess. It's definetly convoluted and at times a bit frustrating but i like the sense of satisfaction i get when i think i understood his point finally.

We learn from history that we don't learn from history - Hegel

ShoddyCast brought me here. And I like it, you sir just got a new Subb, I always do love history and vids like this.

"The owls of Minerva fly only at dusk."

Great to have a video on Hegel here! But I think his ideas a worth for a deeper examination. His "Dialektik" and "System" are very inspiring and not only for the past generations of philosophers (Marx, Adorno, Luhmann) but also for challenges of nowdays phisophy. For further reading I'd recommend Slavoj Zizeks excellent "Less than nothing", Cathrine Malabous "The Future of Hegel" and Hegels own "Enzyklopädie" - search for the traces of Hegels thinking, they are everywhere!

I agree about him being difficult to read! Thank you for this very well presented 'Hegel in a nutshell'. I can see how our modern society is modelled on many of his ideas.

Thank you very much for your Curriculum videos! The really helped me for my philosophy, economics and sociology BAC (France).

2020 here. We haven’t found the balance between the two extremes.

ITS 2020 AND FEELS MORE EXTREME

I would like to thank you for igniting my motivation to actually attempt to read philosophy! You make these ideas digestible and amusing in presentation which keeps me glued to my seat!

You can tell by the usually relaxing voiced narrator that the difficulty reading hegel really pissed him off

Each philosopher has got their own ideas to impart.

I do like Hegel, but every time I've tried to continue reading his "Phenomenology of Spirit", I can't continue because of his writing style.

Thank you for this video. I appreciate you are willing to speak directly to what is true in Hegel's work. It's a needed influence in our modern attempts to right the wrongs of history. A wise perspective for any era.

Amazing.Should I say just amazing.A very comprehensive talk and/or writing and/or video.

I absolutely adore this channel! XD

God, these are really good.

thank you for explaining this in simple terms, I have a presentation on Hegel and I had no clue how to understand and address his philosophies

I really want to pay attention but your voice is so smooth im just relaxing and keep falling asleep

I have read all comments and can say that in 7 minutes is not possible interpret his contribution. I have studied 45 years his books. He did help me to understand history. His Philosophy of history is the best one, because he did use four Aristotelian questions. He did give the best answers ( freedom is the purpose, volition and knowledge are means, the state is the form, etc)! Renegation ( negation of negation) is the best interpretation of nsturl and social processes. We need links that people

I am surprised that the School of Life hasn't made a video on Ludwig Feuerbach yet.

Great effort to summarise an otherwise greatly confusing thinker. 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I needed this breath of fresh air.

Hegel's work is an attempt at scientific analysis of the eternal present moment. He treated consciousness as having evolved through a succession of primitive forms along with the human body, and saw our consciousness as defined by the archaic structures upon which it was built. The will to dominate was his particular displeasure of mankind, to which he proposed we raise our collective spirit with a will to morality, which he believed to be fundamental knowledge a-priori, possible in all humans possessing reason.

Oh, absolutely. The historical context of 'knowledge' is an evolving form built upon antecedent schools and conveyed through multiple conduits, including the Bible and scientific empiricism. The reference points in the content of our character started before literacy. Morality is the skeletal structure upon which the meat of discussion is placed.

I just noticed. This is pretty much one of the only channels on youtube that doesn't remind you to "LIKE, COMMENT, AND SUBSCRIBE!" at the end of the video.

@Lisa Jones the master and slave concept is one of the main ideas that Hegel had

I'm taking the History and Theory of Architecture at Harvardx and have absolutely NO IDEA what the prof is describing about Hegel. Thanks for this video; it clears a lot of things up for me.

"Learn from what you dislike" touched me

Hagel's work was badly written brilliance that dealt with the truly undefinable greyness of morality and ideas. His prophetic work shows that progress is never really straight forward. I hope society more appreciates his work so that we can learn to steady ourselves within a utopia of logic and reason.

Heraclitus would have been proud of Hegel.

Philosophy is the best thing humans have invented. Love you hegel from Saudi Arabia.

YES! Point #3 is a concept I have been obsessed with for years, and I'm so glad to find I'm not just going crazy thinking about it in my "pendulum hypothesis" of human behaviour. So nice to find likeminded characters in history.

Learn from those you disagree with and you'll learn things you nevernknew about, and maybe you'll find more reasons to disagree with [them] even more. So, win-win!

"It might only be by 2020 that we might find the right balance between extremes". Oh dear. I miss 2015.

And I thought it was my mental shortcomings not being able to understand Hegel. What a relief!

every description in these videos is utilitarian. which is ok, but there was more to kant and hegel than practical applications. i understand that this channel is meant to popularize philosophy, so rarely does The School of Life get into the nitty gritty- attempting a rounded out general conception of the philosopher.. However, I still watch these videos if I need to take a breath above water and get to the core positions of these philosophers, and how they still influence us.

He absolutely did not write horribly. I can't believe that characterization.

thank you very much!!!! :)

Your voice is distractingly clear :) Thank you for this video! Hegel had some really good ideas! I agree with pretty much every point you summarized :) I wish more people could try to find the grains of truth in their enemies positions

I loved his hair style as much as his brain.

All in all, a very good job on an often difficult but usually insightful philosopher. Hegel uniquely analyzes the relation of master and servant/slave. There is nothing like it in the history of philosophy, and if he had done nothing else, would have made his contribution immortal. Yet it is little enough understood or appreciated even today. He is worth the work.

Alain drops some bangers :D fascinating
