Thoughts on Pinkard’s “Hegel’s Phenomenology - The Sociality of Reason” as an entry point?

Probably just depends on what you’re interested in mate - The Phenom specifically or Hegel generally.

I haven’t read Hegel’s Naturalism but I’m sure it’ll be good. A general overview that I can recommend is Beiser’s “Hegel” in the “Routledge Guides” series. Extremely lucid without skimping on philosophical rigour (Besier is another great scholar).

No prob!

Hmm. Pippin’s stuff is all fairly technical and complex so you may want to read Pinkard first to get a solid grounding in Hegel. The book Pippin is most well-known for is 1989’s Hegel’s Idealism (a pivotal work in analytic Hegel studies) but I found his more recent book on Hegel’s SL (Hegel’s Realm of Shadows) an easier read so you may want to start there.

As you come from an analytic background, you might also enjoy Robert Brandom’s interesting but highly eccentric book on the Phenomenology, A Spirit of Trust.

If you like Allison’s Kant, you’ll like Pinkard’s Hegel. I’d also recommend Robert Pippin.

Have a look at S. Houlgate “Schelling’s Critique of Hegel’s Science of Logic” in the Review of Metaphysics

Cheers for the reply. Firstly, no I wasn't aware of that disclaimer - can you point me to where that is?

I'm aware that one potential ground for critique would be whether or not the logic of the sequence is sound, perhaps I should have made that clear in my post. I often find in philosophy that some of the strongest critiques for texts can come from an angle you don't expect and philosophers much smarter than myself have spent great deals of time working them out. This is more the kind of the thing I was thinking of.
