REISSUE-Ep 36: Hegel on the Social Dimension of Self-Consciousness

For our final 2021 installment on G.W.F. Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit, we give you a second episode originally posted in 2011, where Mark and Seth continue from ep. 35 with guest Tom McDonald to cover the rest of chapter 4, focusing on sections 178-230.

We cover the famous "master and slave" parable, plus stoicism, skepticism, and the "unhappy consciousness" (i.e. Christianity).
