2019 Reprint of 1894 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. The Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (first published in 1817) is a work that presents an abbreviated version of Hegel's systematic philosophy in its entirety and is the only form in which Hegel ever published his entire mature philosophical system. The fact that the account is exhaustive, that the grounding structures of reality are ideal, and that the system is closed makes the Encyclopedia a statement par excellence of absolute idealism.

The present work represents part three of the Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences published separately as Hegel's Philosophy of Mind. This scholarly translated by undertaken by William Wallace and published by Oxford University Press.
