Hegel

Before writing the Apple iPad Mini Review and before " " we were collecting Hegel.

One of his books unfortunately included a blank page, "The Phenomenology of Spirit" and this caused us to abandon our study of philosophy.

If a book (offset printing) could be printed with a blank page, what was the point?

Hegel was one of the university lecturers that was actually interesting to listen to. You could tell, listening to him speak, that something was going on. Something for the world.

It is rare to find such talent. In the Western World, perhaps ever some 400 years comes a scholar worthy of repute.

Well we procured a book with a blank page, so there was our loss of becoming one of them. You are lucky in being spared our epic poem on Canadiana - in the par with The Iliad and The Odyssey - and other such works we had planned.

To be honest, not only are we easily off-put but we are also so incredibly lazy. Prior to our study of Jean Paul Satre's Being and Nothingness, we encountered a line in Ancient Greek in Heidegger's "Being and Time" right at the start. Not being able to adequately translate this, lacking Ancient Greek as opposed to Modern, we were forced to abandon John Paul.
