TPHL 657 - Hegel: Reason, Revolution, and the Beginning of Liberation3 credits
This course is an advanced seminar on Hegel’s religious thought and its legacy in Marx and Liberation Theology, with a particular focus on his pioneering panentheistic approach to Christian theology and its emancipatory potentials in a world of increasing dehumanization and alienation at the crossroads of the globally dominant North Atlantic capitalist late-modernity. We will closely examine selections from his Phenomenology of Spirit, Philosophy of Right, Lectures on the Philosophy of World History, Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion, and other relevant texts, with a view to assessing critically the theological contribution of his dialectical approach to the modern and late-modern split between subject and object, ideal and material, spirit and nature, reason and history, master and slave, and divine and creaturely. We will also examine Hegel’s tremendous influence on Marx’s humanism as evinced in his early works, especially The Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844.
