    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Hegelian Metaphysics is a series of essays analysing the metaphysical ideas and influence of the great German philosopher G. W. F. Hegel (1770-1831). Robert Stern traces the way those ideas were taken up and criticised by the British Idealists and American Pragmatists, and by more contemporary continental philosophers.

    Long description:

    The great German idealist philosopher G. W. F. Hegel has exerted an immense influence on the development of philosophy from the early 19th century to the present. But the metaphysical aspects of his thought are still under-appreciated. In a series of essays Robert Stern traces the development of a distinctively Hegelian approach to metaphysics and certain central metaphysical issues. The book begins with an introduction that considers this theme as a whole, followed by a section of essays on Hegel himself. Stern then focuses on the way in which certain key metaphysical ideas in Hegel's system, such as his doctrine of the 'concrete universal' and his conception of truth, relate to the thinking of the British Idealists on the one hand, and the American Pragmatists on the other. The volume concludes by examining a critique of Hegel's metaphysical position from the perspective of the 'continental' tradition, and in particular Gilles Deleuze.

    There is no doubt that Stern is one of the best Hegel scholars currently around ... a remarkably competent and enormously resourceful analyst of what is living and dead in a metaphysical discourse which does not ostracize Hegel.
