Excerpt from Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion, Vol. 1 of 3: Together With a Work on the Proofs of the Existence of God
As regards the rendering of the more strictly technical terms employed by Hegel, it has seemed advisable not to adhere rigidly to any one set of English words, but rather to vary the renderings according to the various changes of meaning, and occasionally to add an alternative English equivalent. Thus Begrifi' has usually been translated by Notion - a word which, however objec tionable otherwise, has already firmly fixed itself in our philosophical terminology; but conception has also been used for it in cases where there was no risk of mis understanding. Miss Sanderson had decided on idea as the least objectionable rendering of Vorstellung, - perhaps the most troublesome word in the Hegelian language, - and this the Editor has retained where the German word was used in a very special sense; but ordinary thought, popular conception, and other equivalent expressions have been freely employed; and in this connection the Editor desires to acknowledge the great assistance he has derived from the notes on Hegelian terms given by Professor Wallace in the valuable Prolegomena to his translation of Hegel's Logic.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound relationship between philosophy and religion, exploring how human consciousness navigates between the realms of faith and reason. The author argues that while religion offers solace and meaning, philosophy provides a framework for understanding the complexities of existence. The text traces the historical development of this interplay, from the ancient Greeks who grappled with the divine through philosophical inquiry, to the medieval scholars who sought to reconcile faith and reason. The author examines how the Christian religion, with its inherent duality of human sinfulness and divine grace, further intensifies the need for a harmonious relationship between these two domains. Through a meticulous analysis of the limitations of both religious feeling and rational knowledge, the author proposes a path towards reconciliation. The core idea is that philosophy, by embracing a speculative approach, can elevate religious concepts into the realm of thought, allowing for a deeper understanding of the divine. Ultimately, this book challenges readers to bridge the gap between faith and reason, recognizing that both are essential for a comprehensive grasp of the human spirit's quest for truth and meaning.
