Hegel's critique of Kant /

Priest (University of Manchester) has collected 12 essays, 10 of them not previously published, that address specific points of criticism raised by Hegel against Kant's philosophy. The articles typically combine the exposition of a Kantian doctrine and of Hegel's critique of it with a critical assessment of the historical controversy at hand. The essays cover central issues of the three Critiques, with particular emphasis on the Critique of Pure Reason. Priest's extensive introduction competently summarizes Hegel's critique of Kant in Faith and Knowledge, the Lesser Logic, and the Lectures on the History of Philosophy. The volume also contains a valuable bibliography on the relationship between Kant and Hegel. The quality of the contributions is both remarkable and a promising indication of the introduction of Kantian standards of philosophizing into Anglo-American Hegel scholarship. A valuable addition to the literature for advanced students.-G. Zoeller, University of Iowa
