“Comprising well written essays by internationally acclaimed Hegel scholars (although many are from North America), this volume makes an excellent and accessible reference both to scholars and students of Hegel and Hegelianism.”  (Religious Studies Review, 1 September 2012)

"This superb study brings together Hegel scholars who have penned uniformly excellent articles on all aspects of Hegel's career ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty." (Choice, 1 November 2011)

 

"Hegel is now recognized once again as having not only historical but contemporary importance. This collection of high-quality essays by some of the world's finest Hegel scholars provides a rich variety of perspectives from which to survey his philosophy and its impact."
—Paul Franks, University of Toronto

"Apart from his two central works – the Phenomenology of Spirit and the Science of Logic – Hegel's philosophy covers a vast range: political philosophy; aesthetics; the philosophy of history; and the philosophy of religion. Apart from these, any student of Hegel will want to understand his relation Marx, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Adorno, Derrida, pragmatism, contemporary analytic philosophy, and his conception of embodiment. The thirty essays in Houlgate and Baur's Companion provide a veritable feast, covering all these topics and more. Every serious student of Hegel will want this volume on their bookshelf. "
—J.M. Bernstein, New School for Social Research
