A literal commentary on "Die Phanomenologie des Geistes", this study attempts to overthrow the general consensus of opinion that Hegel's "Phenomenology" is not the logical "science" he believed it be. The author seeks to identify an acceptably-continuous chain of argument in the text.
Hegel's Ladder aspires to be...a 'literal commentary' on Die Phanomenologie des Geistes...It was the conscious goal of my thirty-year struggle with Hegel to write an explanatory commentary on the book; and with its completion, I regard my own 'working' career as concluded...
The prevailing habit of commentators...is founded on the general consensus of opinion that whatever else it may be, Hegel's Phenomenology is not the logical 'science' that he believed it was. This is the received view that I want to overthrow. But if I am right, then an acceptably continuous chain of argument, paragraph by paragraph, ought to be discoverable in the text." -- from the Preface.
