   And at that point they then tell that they didn't tell themselves now we we have finally figured it out. It's the end of history. Everything's in order. Right, we can all we can all relax now. Uh but that turns out never to be the case here, especially with Hegel. And so, one of the I mean, one of the features that is I think really crucial is that Hegel is a grand metaphysician. He's a superb logician. He's a superb epistemologist. He holds his own in the most abstruse and abstract ways in philosophy. But the one thing that's really striking about Hegel uh is that he combines the abstract and…

   So, whatever is happening in Adorno's oeuvre can somewhat be related to parts of these elements of dimensions of these sources and this gives his own thinking also a slightly, let's say, syncretistic feel because he also is using the heavy machinery and vocabulary of all of these already pretty heavy and fundamental philosophies and sometimes he works in a mode of alluding to elements or premises of these philosophies without naming them because for him it was so natural and evident that this is what he's working with. In this mix of theories and references, the Kant-Hegel references have a pa…

   As he puts the argument, then, the scepticism that ends up with the bare abstraction of nothingness or emptiness cannot get any further from there, but must wait to see whether something new comes along and what it is, in order to throw it too into the same empty abyss. (PhG-M §79) Hegel argues that, because Plato’s dialectics cannot get beyond arbitrariness and skepticism, it generates only approximate truths, and falls short of being a genuine science (SL-M 55–6; SL-dG 34–5; PR, Remark to §31; cf. EL Remark to §81). The following sections examine Hegel’s dialectics as well as these issues in…

   One could think of Hegel's philosophy as a machine producing relentlessly producing positivity or identity. One could think that what Hegel does and what a Hegelian dialectic amounts to is transforming plurality, multiplicity, and difference into unity, coherence, and identity. You could think that the Hegelian science of logic, the name of his most important work in metaphysics, is nothing else but a taming of difference and a transformation of any different element into a big grid or matrix of identity. And this would not be wrong. You could also think that maybe the most brilliant work of H…

   So, the entire one, you know, last century that we had defined itself philosophically against Hegel. Now, of course, part of that was also defining itself, at least in certain circles, right, as against Marx, too. Um and that the relation between Hegel and Marx, of course, has become very important. So, one of the one of the issues about Hegel is should we really be negating Hegel? Right? I mean, this is a person who left his stamp on now almost two centuries of political and social thinking. And Slavoj, do you you can go take it, go. Uh first, nonetheless, an introductory note why I am so pro…

   And then I I I think you would say Hegel is an idealist and that you side with him on that level. So, um what what kind of idealism does Hegel advocate or or arrive at? And how and why do you side with him over Marx and Marx's materialism, which I think a lot of people on the left right now want to return to? Okay, this is a a great question. I hope we can, you know, tease this out here some more. The um when Hegel I say Hegel's an idealist and not a materialist. I think another way to look at it is Hegel is an idealist but not a kind of 20th 21st century naturalist. That is, Hegel doesn't thi…

   In that sense, Adorno's inversion aversion of Hegel might be specific also given the other cases and case studies you have treated already in this 1313 series and it might be maybe the most complex, but it might be also the most radical because in Adorno you find an inversion and Umkehrung of Hegel that is keeping Hegel, but is still inverting him, standing him on his head. And this is extremely fascinating because it includes on the one hand a complete loyalty to almost all the topoi important in Hegelianism, but at the same time an ultra severe and serious rejection rejection of some of its …

    Hegel says in the encyclopedia, the difference between us The only the real difference between us and the animals is animals have purposes just like we do. But we have purposes as purposes. We entertain them in that kind of way. In that way we have political projects which say the animals will not have in this case. So, I think that there's one of the features of Hegel is that he is in fact uh right in fact trying to overcome the materialism idealism or the naturalism idealism kind of dichotomy here with a much more nuanced view about what it means to be a self-conscious life you know, that's …
