Human beings are forever drawn to simplify in thought what it is that makes us individuals. But there is an alternative, one that Shannon Hoff articulates in her forthcoming book How to Read Hegel Now. 

Shannon Hoff is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Memorial University. She is author of The Laws of the Spirit: A Hegelian Theory of Justice, and has published in the areas of political philosophy, feminism, and the tradition of European philosophy more broadly.

This episode concludes with a portion of the song “Clarissa in the Mirror,” written and performed by Hoff, with instrumental credits to Tania Gill and Don Scott.
