Approaching Hegel’s Logic, Obliquely: Melville, Moliere, Beckett
Angelica Nuzzo’s Approaching Hegel’s Logic, Obliquely is an audacious philosophical endeavor that stakes its ground on re-reading Hegel’s Logic as a “logic of transformation” and a “logic of action.” This is not a conventional explication of Hegel’s famously opaque work, nor is it content with philosophical abstraction. Instead, Nuzzo seeks to vivify Hegel’s thought by…
