Originally published in English in 1910, Hegel writes that knowledge is not separated from, nor outside of, absolute reality but that knowledge is itself reality and says that reality is mental and spiritual.
Combines moral and political philosophy to form a sociologic view dominated by the idea of a state. Hegel defines universal right as the synthesis between the thesis of an individual acting in accordance with the law and the occasional conflict to follow private convictions. He suggests an idealized form of a constitutional monarchy, in which ultimate power rests with the sovereign.
