About the book 

"Hegel's India: A Reinterpretation with Texts" is a book that challenges common interpretations of philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's views on India. The authors, Aakash Singh Rathore and Rimina Mohapatra, argue that Indian thought haunted Hegel, representing a nemesis to his own philosophy despite his criticism of Indian art, religion, and philosophy as "fantastic," "subjective," and "absurd". This unique volume brings together Hegel's reflections on India, including his writings on the Bhagavad Gita and Oriental Spirit. It sheds new light on Indological and Hegelian studies
