Hegel joined a lively conversation, from Leibniz to Romanticism and beyond, about this novel concept\/phenomenon. Successive chapters track Hegel’s engagement, in such texts as the \u003ci\u003ePhenomenology\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEncyclopedia\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eAesthetics\u003c\/i\u003e. Hegel’s system tends to follow a syllogistic logic (universal, particular, singular), but ‘individuality’ departs from the norm. The category enacts a certain pragmatics (as against semantics or syntactics) regarding tacit assumptions at work or implicit terms of address, which requires active participation by a thinking subject charged with discerning individuality (which bars resort to explicit rules). The category reflexively implicates the user even in presuming an objective context.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘Individuality’ should not be confused with ‘individualism,’ wholly distinct in origin. Moreover, Hegel’s \u003ci\u003eAesthetics \u003c\/i\u003eembraces a paradoxical anachronism. Like ‘art’ itself, ‘individuality’ emerged as an essentially modern category, though one transferred to the past and to distant cultures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2024-09-01\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031213717\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-21369-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210.0cm x148.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 415.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44523086741644,"sku":"9783031213717","price":125.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031213717.jpg?v=1758722198","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783031213717","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
