Robert Stern, “Routledge Philosophy Guidebook to Hegel and The Phenomenology of Spirit”
Routledge | 2001-12-14 | ISBN: 0415217881 | 224 pages | PDF | 1,6 MB
The Phenomenology of Spirit is Hegel’s most important and famous work. It is essential to understanding Hegel’s philosophical system and why he remains a major figure in western philosophy. Stern offers a clear and accessible introduction to what is undoubtedly one of the most complex books in the history of philosophy.

“Robert Stern’s commentary on Hegel’s Phenomenology of the Spirit is another strong addition in the Routledge Philosophy Guidebook series. Even by the arcane standards of German idealism Hegel’s Phenomenology is a notoriously difficult text, at once, both, beautifully poetic and frustratingly specious. It can be impenetrable for the first-time reader if approached without the assistance of a skilled guide (or two). Overall, I highly recommend Stern’s commentary for readers approaching the Phenomenology for the first time. Even with this excellent guide, however, a solid background in academic philosophy is probably required to fully appreciate Hegel.” - reader’s review.
