1.Logic, nature and spirit: their systematic relations 2. The truth of nature's externality in the 1807 Phenomenology; 3. Nature's liberation from externality in the philosophy of nature; 4. Why nature is not yet spirit.
From the editors' preface:
"Cinzia Ferrini treats one of the most difficult conceptual-systematic transitions in Hegel's philosophy: the transition from the world of nature to the realm of spirit. She outlines the internal connections between logic, nature and spirit, as conceived by Hegel. She then determines the meaning of 'external nature' in the 1807 Phenomenology. Finally, by considering Hegel's various lectures on logic, nature and spirit, as well as the Encyclopaedia Philosophy of Nature, Ferrini elucidates Hegel's challenging account of the separation of self-external nature from nature as the externalization of spirit".
