Final Four Videos In "The Moral View of the World"

We're making progress through this last big portion of the Spirit section, "Spirit That Is Certain of Itself: Morality."  With these four videos, we finish up the first portion of that section, "The Moral View of the World".

Who does Hegel have in mind here?  One might well think that his dialectical criticism is directed primarily at Immanuel Kant. But really, there's a much broader tendency in culture to identifying morality and duty over against our natural human inclinations and drive, and their satisfaction in happiness - more so in Hegel's time perhaps than in our own - that his discussion really bears upon.

Here are those four videos completing that section:

• Lecture 257 - paragraphs 604-605
• Lecture 258 - paragraphs 606-607
• Lecture 259 - paragraphs 608-610
• Lecture 260 - paragraphs 611-615
