Would Hegel have agreed with the >2016 concept That is, since

Hegel felt history had already reached its conclusion in his time

>>7845201
do you know what text he says it in?

He says a lot of things that seem to contradict that. I thought one of his main points was that consciousness is always changing

interesting thought

Read Hegel's Lectures on Philosophy of History and (if your body is ready) Phenomenology of Geist.

You expect us to spoonfeed you?

I've been reading it but I'm not sure if my body/mind is ready yet.

these threads just hype me up into reading more

You're allowing some pretty corrosive thoughtforms inside you mind by reading Hegel anon. You're fairly okay if you're reading a translation, but if you're reading the original german you are lucky you don't understand a goddamn word of what he's saying.

Hegel was a wizard, gentlemen, and you're playing with fire.

Stop spouting nonsense about you don't know.

He's not wrong. History had reached a certain conclusion in Prussia.

i believe the he said that it would advance geographically further West, though. To Panama if I remember correctly

>>7847163
I heard a professor claim that as well. Never heard the source of it though. A lot of Hegel is interpretation anyway

>>7847172
History is reaching 'conclusions' all the time, but they inevitably fall into the movement and destruction of human activity, which in turn reach another, higher conclusion and so on.

>>7847183
I don't care, he is wrong if he thinks Hegel claimed History as such is finished.

>>7847187
are you claiming to know more than everyone who has ever studied Hegel and that you alone know the objective Hegel?

If anything, Hegel might have intended to say that the particular thought determination prominent in his time and place (he is very explicit is saying that every idea belongs to its time and place) was finished, or that nothing new could come out of it because it was developed to its exhaustion, but out of its closure another one would come to be and take this particular Spirit and use it towards a new form of philosophy or history.

>>7847202
No, but it's obvious for anyone who can read that Hegel is a Heraclitean philosopher: there is nothing to be 'finished' in the process of History and reality, because those differences are reality itself.
