Springtime for Hegel

By Anthony Quinton
Hegel: A Biography
Terry Pinkard

Cambridge University Press, 780 pp., $39.95

Until recently the only substantial biography of Hegel was the one brought out by his follower Karl Rosenkranz in 1844, thirteen years after Hegel's death. The book has not been translated and it is perhaps significant that it is merely mentioned, with no comment on its uniqueness, in Frederick Copleston's History of Philosophy and in the article on Hegel in the latest (last?) printed Britannica.
