Tragedy in Hegel's philosophy represents a critical intersection of art and politics, crucial for understanding his concept of Spirit. Hegel views tragedy, particularly in his Aesthetics, as a culmination of the Philosophy of Art, and highlights the tragedy of Antigone as a key work for its ethical and political implications. Antigone's conflict, embodying irresolvable ethical dilemmas, illustrates the clash between universal principles and individual actions.
This seminar aims to explore the role of tragedy in Hegel's system, from his early Jena writings to his mature works, and examines its contemporary relevance through various perspectives including feminist, political, and psychoanalytic interpretations.
