The works of the German thinker George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831) became the peak of German classical philosophy. It was Hegel who, with the help of the dialectical method developed by him, give the teachings, subsequently called idealism, the appearance of a finished, deeply thought out philosophical system. “Philosophy of the Spirit” is a final work that entered the Hegelian fundamental “encyclopedia of philosophical sciences”. In this unusually complex work, Hegel formulated the most important idea of ​​freedom in the modern world. By uniting ethics in a single teaching, the theory of public administration and religion, Hegel managed to find a place in his system for logical and natural, human and divine. Hegelian philosophy gave rise to a powerful movement of followers - Hegelianism, and from the polemic with its teaching the most influential philosophical movements of the latest time grew: Marxism, positivism, existentialism
