HEGEL, EXPERIENCE, INTRODUCTION TO THE PHENOMENOLOGY OF SPIRIT, MARIANO ÁLVAREZ-GÓMEZAbstract
Relating to Mariano Alvarez-Gomez’s book, Experiencia y sistema: introductión al pensamiento de Hegel, this article studies the concept of experience in Hegel’s Introduction to the Phenomenology of Spirit. Seven absurdities that Hegel ascribes to the traditional epistemology are presented, leading thus to its replacement by a new paradigm of knowledge, namely that of the “shape of consciousness”. Knowledge is therefore studied from the phenomenological point of view, where consciousness experiences its object and itself through the successive reshaping of the very standard which, at each moment, defines truth. As a conclusion, and according to this dialectical redefinition of experience, it is reaffirmed that dialectics is experience brought at the level of the concept, and Alvarez-Gomez’s thesis that for Hegel knowledge is grounded on experience.
