TRANSLATOR'S NOTE

The author himself explains the precise connexion of the present work with the other three volumes of the Philosophy of the Spirit, to which it now forms the conclusion.

I had not contemplated1 translating this treatise2, when engaged upon the others, for the reason that it was not in existence in its present form, and an external parallel to its position as the last, the late comer of the four masterpieces, is to be found in the fact of its publication by another firm than that which produced the preceding volumes. This diversity in unity3 will, I am convinced, by no means act as a bar to the dissemination4 of the original thought contained in its pages, none of which will, I trust, escape the diligent5 reader through the close meshes6 of the translation.

The volume is similar in format7 to the Logic8, the Philosophy of the Practical, and the ?sthetic. The last is now out of print, but will reappear translated by me from the definitive9 fourth Italian edition, greatly exceeding in bulk the previous editions.

The present translation is from the second Italian edition, published in 1919. In this the author made some slight verbal corrections and a few small additions. I have, as always, followed the text with the closest respect.

D. A.

The Athen?um, London

November 1920
