Hegel and the idea of a speculative logic - 2023.


37

In this first part of the exploration of the idea of speculative logic in Hegel, we first trace the idea of the logical element (das Logische). This converges on a questioning about the origin of the speculative element (das Spekulativ) both in the history of Western thought (especially by the Greeks and Augustine) and in Kantian thought, which serves as a (critical) basis for the elaboration of the idea of speculative logic. This double approach serves as a description of a general and problematic horizon into which the approach to the many “dialectics” of Hegelian logic can be displayed.
