Introducción a la historia de la filosofía: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Omnes published a profile on the life and philosophical contributions of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel.

Hegel received theological training at the seminary of Tubinga between 1788 and 1793. During his studies, he was classmates with Schelling and Hölderlin, who shared an admiration for Fichte. While his peers achieved recognition, Hegel lived in obscurity until the publication of his work in 1807.

Hegel eventually became a professor at the university of Berlin, where his influence surpassed that of Fichte and Schelling. He is considered a father of contemporary philosophy, as subsequent philosophy is either a derivation of or a reaction to his work. Hegel died in Berlin on 14 noviembre 1831.
