Modernity and the Death of God in Hegel’s Thinking
An Interpretation of the Speculative Yield of Christianity
Keywords:
Hegel, Philosophy of Religion, Spirit, Death of God, ModernityAbstract
This paper investigates how Hegel’s understanding of the death of God can help reconstruct his own diagnosis of modernity. Here, we defend that this genuinely illustrated event, which decrees the radical separation between the domains of knowledge and faith, also refers to the supreme event of a God who dies and whose revelation must be assumed by philosophy as absolute knowledge and knowledge of the Absolute.
