With the appearance of this book the English-speaking world will learn something at first hand of the genesis of Hegel's ideas, the dominant intellectual themes of his youth, and the struggle of his penetrating, comprehensive mind to achieve clarity. --The Philosophical Review In these youthful essays there appears a Hegel almost unknown to the textbooks--not the master theorizer but an existential thinker who at times can outexistentialize even Kierkegaard himself; not a monolithic rationalist but a brooding, perceptive romantic. The writer of these pages is no defender of 'The System ; he is more prophet than professor, and more seeker than seer. --The Christian Century
