The theme of “Institutions of Education: then and today” not only corresponds with the basic questions raised in German Idealism, but is also central to the question of whether it is legitimate to study German Idealism in our era. Elaborating on this project immediately raises the problem of institutional differentiation, which characterizes multicultural society. Does the variety of educational institutions not, by definition, exclude the shared conception and realization of adulthood that is presupposed by German Idealism? This book shows that German Idealism can still participate in the contemporary debate on education: it is not only helpful in raising relevant questions, but can also be transformed into positions which can deal with the pluriformity that characterizes contemporary society.

Dieser akribische Kommentar zu den ersten fünf Kapiteln der Phänomenologie des Geistes wird Absatz für Absatz durchgeführt und analysiert den logischen Aufbau dieses Werkes. Es wird herausgearbeitet, wie diese logische Struktur in der (kleinen) Logik der Enzyklopädie der philosophischen Wissenschaften explizit gemacht wird. Dies eröffnet in besonderer Weise den Zugang zu zwei zentralen Werken Hegels. Zunächst wird deutlich, inwiefern die Phänomenologie des Geistes ein Schlüssel ist, um Zugang zur Logik der Enzyklopädie zu erhalten. Umgekehrt hilft diese Logik aber auch, die Struktur der Phänomenologie des Geistes besser zu verstehen.In a meticulous commentary on the first five chapters of the Phenomenology of Spirit, which is carried out paragraph by paragraph, the logical structure of this work is analyzed. The book elaborates how this logical structure is made explicit in the (shorter) logic of the Enzyklopädie der philosophischen Wissenschaften. This opens up access to two of Hegel's central works in a special way. First of all, it becomes clear in what way the Phenomenology of Spirit is a key to gaining access to the logic of the Enzyklopädie. But conversely, this logic also helps to gain a better understanding of the structure of the Phenomenology of Spirit.
