About the Author

Praise for this book
"Recommended."--J. M. Fritzman "CHOICE"
"...McCumber shows in a detailed and highly informative way how Hegel's idealism can be understood as a response to Kant's distinction between transcendental idealism and empirical realism by redefining not just intuition but also the sphere of universality in linguistic terms."--Johan Siebers "Hegel Studien"
"McCumber has been developing a fresh, persuasive reinterpretation of Hegel over multiple books and years; this book is a welcome extension of that project. It offers not only an important corrective to Hegel scholarship but dissolves some of the thorniest questions regarding Kant's undeniable but elusive influence on Hegel's development."--Lydia Moland "Colby College"
"McCumber's linguistic interpretation of Hegel's idealism offers an elegant, attractive and--in the best philosophical sense--provocative understanding of Hegel's position, one that makes him at once comprehensible and relevant to contemporary philosophy. The book will be of great interest to anyone concerned with the development of German philosophy."--Peter Thielke "Pomona College"
"McCumber takes a stance on some of the most pressing and interesting topics in recent Hegel scholarship, including the question of whether and in what sense Hegel can be considered a naturalist, the nature of Hegelian idealism, and Hegel's understanding of the freedom of the will."--Julia Peters "International Yearbook of German Idealism"
