Andrew Alexander Davis is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Belmont University, USA.
Many consider the Preface to Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit his greatest philosophical masterpiece, but it is also famously difficult. In Hegel on Pseudo-Philosophy, Andrew Davis shows that it is not just a marvelous introduction to Hegel’s philosophy, but to philosophy as such, one that guards us against its many simulacra. * Mark Alznauer, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Northwestern University, USA * Andrew Davis’s study provides a highly original guiding thread through one of the most challenging texts in modern philosophy. Its laser-like focus on Hegel’s contribution to the age-old task of distinguishing philosophy from pseudo-philosophies manages to maintain high scholarly standards, while also reminding us at every turn of our contemporary pseudo-thinking practices. * Allegra de Laurentiis, Professor of Philosophy, Stony Brook University, USA * What Hegelian philosophy does not want to be? This book captures the reader's attention in an original way, describing Hegel's philosophy from what it is not. An ex negativo route through which one of the most complex works of Western philosophy, the Phenomenology of Spirit, becomes comprehensible even to those who are not specialists in philosophy. * Stefania Achella, Associate Professor of Moral Philosophy, University of Chieti-Pescara, Italy *
