Hegel and the Problem of Beginning: Scepticism and Presuppositionlessness

ISBN10:1538147556ISBN13:

Description:
Hegel opens the first book of his Science of Logic with the statement of a problem: The beginning of philosophy must be either something mediated or something immediate, and it is easy to show that it can be neither the one nor the other, so either way of beginning finds its rebuttal. Despite its significant placement, exactly what Hegel means in his expression of this problem and exactly what his solution to it is, remain unclear.
In this book, Robb Dunphy provides a detailed engagement with Hegels problem of beginning, locating it within Hegels account of significant approaches to the topic of beginning in the history of Western philosophy, as well as making an extended case for the influence of Pyrrhonian Scepticism on the beginning of Hegels Logic. Dunphys discussion of the various putative solutions that Hegel might be thought to put forward contributes to debates concerning Hegels views on the methodology of logic, the relation between his Logic and his Phenomenology of Spirit, and differences between his Encyclopaedia presentation of logic and that of his greater Science of Logic.
