Hegels Ladder aspires to be...a literal commentary on Die Phanomenologie des Geistes ...It was the conscious goal of my thirty-year struggle with Hegel to write an explanatory commentary on the book; and with its completion I regard my own working career as concluded...The prevailing habit of commentators...is founded on the general consensus of opinion that whatever else it may be, Hegels Phenomenology is not the logical science that he believed it was. This is the received view that I want to overthrow. But if I am right, then an acceptably continuous chain of argument, paragraph by paragraph, ought to be discoverable in the text. -- from the Preface.

To the members of St. Edmund Hall where it was my good fortune to be taught; and of Glendon College where it has been my good fortune to teach.

Dentro al cristallo che 'l vocabol porta,
cerchiando il mondo, del suo caro duce
sotto cui giacque ogne malizia morta,
di color d'oro in che raggio traluce
vid'io uno scaleo eretto in suso
tanto, che nol seguiva la mia luce.
Vidi anche per li gradi scender giuso
tanti splendor, ch'io pensai ch'ogne lume
che par nel ciel, quindi fosse diffuso
.

( Paradiso, Canto XXI, 25-33)
