摘要

This paper explores the correspondences between Fyodor Dostoevsky’s literary work and thought and the philosophy of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. The focus throughout is on the notion of freedom which is discussed in its key modalities by reference to a number of Hegel’s works, primarily The Philosophy of Right, Science of Logic and Phenomenology of Spirit. The exposition of Hegelian Freedom includes its relation to Reason, finitude and Infinity, Self-Consciousness, and the syllogistic structure of Universal/Particular and Individual. This constellation of terms associated with Freedom in Hegel is marshalled towards a reading of various texts, both fictional and non-fictional, across Dostoevsky’s corpus in order to set in relief the remarkable proximity between the Absolute Spirit of Hegel’s philosophy and that of the literary art of Dostoevsky.
