| Sumario: | This book presents a collection of essays by Hayden White, focusing on the philosophical theories of G.W.F. Hegel. It explores Hegel's concept of historicism as tragic realism and examines how White interprets Hegel's work through his own theoretical lens. The book aims to provide insights into Hegel's philosophical inquiries and their relevance to contemporary philosophical discourse. It delves into the philosophy of history, discussing substantive and critical branches, and challenges the demarcation between historical analysis and philosophical speculation. The text also highlights White's engagement with other philosophers, such as Marx, Nietzsche, and Croce, and addresses how their works contribute to a realist understanding of history. The book is intended for scholars and students of philosophy and history, particularly those interested in Hegelian thought and its impact on modern historiography.
