Description

Theory of Objective Mind is the first book of the important German philosopher Hans Freyer to appear in English. Freyer took what remained valid in G. F. Hegel's work and drew upon the subsequent insights of the early work of Edmund Husserl in an effort to understand the nature of culture by clarifying methodologically the process of Verstehen, the relation between life and objectivated form and the formation of the historical world as described by Wilhelm Dilthey and especially Georg Simmel. Theory of Objective Mind is indispensable for all those who seek to understand culture philosophically as well as historically or sociologically.
