    Hegels Philosophie der Realität (edited book)
    Brill. 2024.
    Despite the emphasis on 'concept' and 'idea', Hegel never fails to utilize the term 'reality' as well throughout his work. This is particularly noteworthy, as Hegel does not discuss this term in a separate chapter, unlike other semantically related concepts such as 'being', 'existence', 'actuality', 'objectivity', and of course 'concept' and 'idea'. The contributions of this volume track Hegel's numerous but scattered mentions of reality and reconstruct the overlooked yet cohesive Hegelian philo…Read more

    Ist es möglich, das Absolute zu begreifen? Hegel behauptet Ja und irritiert seit gut 200 Jahren mit der Radikalität und Komplexität seines Ansatzes. Ermylos Plevrakis zeigt, inwiefern Hegels Wissenschaft der Logik als die rein logische Grundlagenforschung zum begrifflichen Fundament aller Metaphysik zu lesen ist.

    Grundlegung des Absoluten?: Paradigmen aus der Geschichte der Metaphysik (edited book)
    Universitätsverlag Winter. 2019.
    Die Metaphysik hat eine lange Geschichte und ebenso viele Bedeutungen. Ein Konsens scheint aber unter den Denkern, die Metaphysik betreiben, hinsichtlich der Funktion der Metaphysik zu bestehen: Sie gehört zum Kerngeschäft der Philosophie. Denn sie soll die Grundlegung jeglicher systematisch konzipierter Philosophie sein. 0Wenn die Metaphysik aber als derart zentral vorgestellt wird, so muss die schwierige Frage nach einem gesicherten Zugang zur durchaus umstrittenen Disziplin der Metaphysik im …Read more

    While Kant in his Critique of Pure Reason aims to 'humiliate' reason by declining any possibility of knowledge of things 'in themselves', he does conceive such critique as 'the necessary preparation for a thoroughly scientific system of metaphysics'. In this paper I examine in what sense Hegel's Science of Logic goes beyond that Kantian view without neither relapsing back into dogmatic metaphysics nor turning into a mere pragmatism. I argue that reality in itself is ontologically deficient so th…Read more

    The Aristotelian Theos in Hegel's Philosophy of Mind
    Hegel Bulletin 41 (1): 83-101. 2020.
    Although Hegel does not pass up the opportunity to express his deep admiration for specific aspects of the Aristotelian notion of God, he is not interested in giving a concrete account of its systematic significance for hisPhilosophy of Mindas a whole. In this article, I seek to take an overarching perspective on both the Aristotelian God and the Hegelian mind. By contrast to the common practice of focusing on Hegel's interpretation of Aristotle in hisLectures on the History of Philosophy, I fir…Read more
