Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand Solger lived in the time of Hegel. In Hegel's opinion, the most important part of Solger's philosophy is that the dialectical thought of the negation of the negation take the core position of his philosophy.. But from the perspective of Hegel, Solger's understanding of the negation of the negation is not dialectical and is different from his own. This dissertation tries to from Hegel's standpoint criticize Solger's thought of the negation of the negation in order to provide a new way to understand Hegel's thought of the negation of the negation.This dissertation is divided into four parts, firstly, through introducing the relation between God and our existence, this dissertation outlines Solger's thought about the negation of the negation. And then it points out Solger's God is finitely infinite by introducing Hegel's discussion in Logic about the relation between the infinity of the understanding and the definiteness. Secondly, by comparing Hegel's and Solger's thought about the Greek tragedy, it points out Solger mistook in the Greek tragedy the contradiction between the unjust parties as the contradiction between the absolute goodness and the absolute badness. This leads him to think that only through the destruction of the idea in us, the idea of the Greek tragedy reveals to us. Thirdly, it points out two Solger's dogmatic preconditions, namely God is absolute good and our existence is absolute bad, bring about two results, 1)Solger's dialectic exposition about the negation of the negation lacks mediate determination, and there is an unresolved contradiction between two preconditions.2) Solger maintains that the idea can only reveal itself in the work of the art, while Hegel argues that the idea will reveal itself in the real ethical life. Fourthly, introducing Hegel's discussion about the notions, "consciousness" and "experience", it points out the negative element of the dialectic comes from the dialogue form of the consciousness, namely, the dialectic contradiction between the being in itself and the knowledge, and further points out that the error of Solger's thought about the negation of the negation lies in it that he regards "God" and "our existence" as the given being in itself and therefore in them he could not develop the real dialectic negative element. |
