Extrinsic Reflection and Absolute Reflection as answer to the debate on the metaphysical or non-metaphysical readings of Hegel

Keywords: Hegel, Interpretation, Metaphysics, Absolute Reflection, Extrinsic Reflection

Abstract

Hegelians normally consider Hegel's philosophical system from two perspectives: metaphysics, interpreting this discipline as the central one to understand the work of the German philosopher, or non-metaphysics, being more relevant alternative interpretations that avoid it. This article presents a study on the senses of reflection. These senses can be extrinsic or absolute. These two senses are the backbones of the Hegelian system. Therefore, by means of a study of whether extrinsic and absolute reflection are notions that guide us towards metaphysical or non-metaphysical readings, we try to give an answer to the debate between the possible interpretations of Hegel.
