- Title
Life as ground—Variations on a theme: Comments on Karen Ng's Hegel's concept of life.
- Abstract
In this discussion, I take up Karen Ng's central claim that according to Hegel, the ground of the intelligibility of the world and of the objectivity of our judgment is life. I unpack this claim by considering different interpretive variations of it, all of which find textual support in Ngs book. I offer criticism of the various interpretive variations, with the overall aim of working toward gaining a clearer understanding of what precisely is implied by the idea of life as ground, and how that idea might be defended against potential objections.
