Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 2.3 Mb
Overview: Religion, Modernity, and Politics in Hegel analyzes Hegel’s philosophy of religion and develops its significance for ongoing debates about the relation between religion and politics as well as the history of the conceptualization of religion. One of the most vital currents in contemporary Hegel scholarship argues that Hegel radicalizes, rather than reneges upon, Kant’s critique of metaphysics. Critics have claimed that this new scholarship cannot account for Hegel’s treatment of religion. Addressing an important lacuna in the scholarship, Lewis argues that reading Hegel’s philosophy of religion in relation to these non-traditional interpretations of his intellectual project as a whole generates a new understanding of Hegel as well as a new perspective on religion, politics, and modernity. In relation to the conceptualization of religion, Hegel’s complex and multi-faceted account of religion reconciles common contrasts, presenting religion as both personal and social, both emotional and cognitive, both theoretical and practical. In relation to politics, it is public without being theocratic and gives a decisive importance to individual conscience.
