No notes, no pauses, no equivocation, no tangents, making extremely complex ideas comprehensible for everyone. Amazing job. I wish I'd had a philosophy teacher like this.
Yeah, isn't he incredible.... and I imagine it's probably the kinda caliber that sets places like Princeton, Yale & Harvard apart (though at least here we don't have to pay for it)!
@@cheesycheese7100 no harder then cutting someone's hair for the first time without pictures or a common precise language to place an image in someone's head, then sculped it in 30 to 40 min.
Glad you found the work of Dr. Michael Sugrue.
@@matthewchunk3689 Both are flawed, but that’s only my opinion
Still he talks about weird words related to Geist without its direct translation: ghost xD
Perhaps the most talented lecturer on philosophy I’ve ever witnessed
The guy is a natural genius, who has distilled complex thought down to, or up to general comprehension.
H
0ĺĺk
He even paces like Hegel, great guy, a little weird, but a great guy, لا اله الا الله محمد رسول الله
He really gets down to the gist of the argument
@@JC-wg5xni see what you did there buddy
@@JC-wg5xnlol I love this, nerd joke
"There's gonna be a whole new generation of philosophers that want to get tenure that are going to have to get rid of this earlier generation and *really* turn the corner and have a new, totally changed end of history. It could be that we'll never get beyond Hegel in this respect, though we all feel the need to create a novelty that is spurious but entertaining. And that is our homage to Hegel I would say."
Golden.
I was cleaning a lab and listening to this talk. When he actually uttered these words😂, my eyes and mind were fixed at a bottle sitting on some kind of brown fresh stain on a newly installed workstation, which I am meant to clean. On the bottle there was a warning label that warned me not to touch as whatever this wash was dangerous as it was biological😮 and now stuck between the curious statement and this I was there for a moment reflecting on the thought of the phases that the wholesomeness of humanity depended on in the eyes of Hegel. The good the bad and the ugly are processes that the growing child is better going thru to trully appreciate life and know when adulthood hopefully brings the harmony home. I then looked at one of his references, "One Dimensional Man" book on the subject of totalitarianis 😢 then I thought poor we! We have taken dominion over all things with too much unawareness of what it actually means. There is a meaning what mankind is and must be but if its overtime and yet we still dont what that is all we have is what, Hagel assures us, which is that nature has got our back?
We are getting an Ivy league philosophy class for free. Incredible
I’m totally great full for that.
Prof taught at Ivy League. String lecture’s together and you’ve got a class. His brilliance and delivery is the important part here friend. Your education is on you but these lectures are incredibly valuable.
These lectures are for general audience
Perhaps, though his facility with subject matter is world-class.@@tchaivorakfauresohnsieg9532
He really explains it in down to earth every day language , I can’t even believe his lecture is over, it went by so quick, I can listen to him all day

Beautifully abstracted the main points of the lecture..thanks.
Thank you friend!
Thank you. Love time stamps.
Not all heroes wear capes. TY
Thanks!
Whats great about Dr. Sugrue's interpretation of philosophy and ideas is that he ties it to the poetic, the lyrical, the artistic and the spiritual aspects of human experience. The four pillars of culture- art, philosophy, religion and science- are intimately intertwined like a thread running through Western thought.
If the four pillars are art, philosophy, religion and science then we experience extreme imbalance.
PLEASE do some new lectures, your knowlage is astounding and id love for more people around the world to experience it!
His daughter manages this account I believe-last I heard (about a year or two ago) she said Dr. Sugrue was battling some health issues. These lectures are gold though, like Rick Rodericks from the same series.. CZcams university is real because of content like this.
@@nightoftheworld let me know if you find other good lectures besdies these ones and Rick Roderick's I'm always looking for new interesting stuff
@@santiagomathison9158 _Closer to Truth_ with Robert Lawrence Kuhn is a great series on here-not lectures but many interviews with theologians/scientists/philosophers on big questions of consciousness, meaning, God.
@@nightoftheworld I thought I was the only person that says CZcams University 🙂
KNOWLAGE
I recently feel so depressed with my work, then I come back to the lectures of Prof. Sugrue, everything is so beautiful.
God-tier Hegel explanatory, well done sir
Thank you so much Mr Sugrue. Your lectures are expertly delivered, I find them fascinating. I don't think you are aware just how grateful we all are for these absolute gems. These lessons are keeping me going right now as we trudge through this draining covid purgatory. If there was a syllabus I could follow, I would love to study these courses in the correct order. If you ever launch a new online course I would sign up immediately.
Thanks once again.
See Dad's Substack account for syllabi
@@dr.michaelsugrue can you pls post the link here? Searched up and down, couldnt find it

Your right 😮 He’s completely balanced! I can’t get enough. I’m literally binge watching 😂
These videos really are terrific. Thank you so much for uploading them.
Before watching i knew there is a guy named Hegel. After i watch the video i will know what he stands for, what he brought new to the table, his place in history, relation to old, then and now, in less than an hour.
This has quickly become one of my favorite channels! Looking forward to new uploads!
39:05 *Geist* “I freely confess all the idiotic ambitions of the end of the nineteenth century. I did, like all other solemn little boys, try to be in advance of the age. Like them I tried to be some ten minutes in advance of the truth. And I found that I was eighteen hundred years behind it.”
-G.K. Chesterton
Chesterton wasn't religious at all, in fact he changed certain ideas in the bible. Look it up
@@upsty6499 Chesterton _participated_ by writing endlessly about Christianity in defense of what he saw as its deeper logic-he went beyond the letter of the Law and found the Spirit-which makes him a _true_ Christian in Sugrue’s own logic.
@@upsty6499 um..his conversion to and advocacy of catholicism was one of the central themes of his works. Look it up.
One of the best lectures I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Thank you for the upload.
What a fantastic lecture. Thank you!
Thank you for posting these. They truly add value to my life. You have a gift for communication.
Oh boy, I so enjoy's this guy's lectures. I can hardly wait to hear the next one from day to day.
These are fascinating in substance and perfectly presented. Very grateful.
Always inspiring and always making me think. I really enjoy these lectures.
Love it! Keep ‘em coming.
Thank you so much for posting.
Thank you for this. Hagel had an insight that was eternal. I appreciate your lecture and honor it!
Dr. sugrue and the other professor on this channel are the best lecturers I have ever seen. Amazing and thank you for posting!
Every one of these lectures is a light and they only get better.
Wow....terrific...I am extremely happy to find or come across this clip...a dream to find an ideal professor. Such a great germ...
I love how are CZcams allows us to audit amazing classes in time and space.
Brilliant, Michael. I am grateful to have come upon this lecture of yours.
Thank goodness for this channel😀❤️
Remarkable. Thank you, Dr Sugrue.
Humans can be too good when put effort on anything. The lecture is super.
As an African living here in USA exploring to exploit whatever knowing comes my way, am grateful to come across your video(s). I must say again, this is Super! Super!
who cares if you're african
Agreed, not only fascinating but highly enjoyable too, seems almost too good to be true
Good luck!
Do you have proof of claim that we are humans which evolved from a primate
These lectures are gold.
Thank you , great as always 🤟
I sure want to hear more from Dr. Sugrue on Hegel. There is so much more to discuss.
This is the greatest channel to ever exist.
Rest in peace professor Sugrue. We miss you dearly. You have indeed left a big. shady tree for all of us.
the Professor length and depth of knowledge result in outstanding lectures and the result - his teachings are extraordinary. I’m now continuing my education and philosophy
Awe yes even CZcams understands the significance of these lectures, I never get no ads when I watch these.....
Tha ks CZcams.. much love for this man
Really interesting!!
I like the idea that we're somehow invariably stuck in that loop of not being able to push past the 'end' of things.
Such a human notion :)
x
I take a break from car crash videos to get down with something really exciting when I have the time and patience. Always worth hearing Professor Sugrue.
Relatable
I just had the best hike listening to this
I hike every day listening to him and others, too, e. g Berlin’s lectures. Greetings from the Appalachian Trail..
Few can make as great an impact on as many people as college professors who are truly passionate about *teaching*.
Many are experts in their field, but never learn how to make complicated ideas accessible without comprising their complexity.
I've been staring at this ellipsis for 43 minutes now.
When you temporalize and turn the history of philosophy into a series of phases the last phase has to be you. And the last phase has been us for the last 150 years now. I have no doubt that in the next century--again here's charting out the Hegelian trajectory--there's gonna be a whole new generation of philosophers that wanna get tenure that are gonna have to get rid of this earlier generation and really turn the corner, have a new, totally changed end of history. It could be that we'll never get beyond Hegel in that respect: that we all feel the need to create a novelty, [something] spurious but entertaining. And that is our homage to Hegel. So even if it is a little presumptuous to explain the true reconciliation of God and Man, even if it's just a tad implausible to write the Geist's autobiography, to actually be the Geist, all of our intellectual concerns and all of the intellectual concerns since the time of Hegel have been one way or another dealing with his legacy: either by accepting it and trying to reformulate it in such a way as is consistent with the dominant intellectual trends of the time (and what could be more Hegelian than that?) or rejecting it and saying that we've totally changed the corner, we have to trow out all this Hegelian stuff (and what could be more Hegelian than that?). Either way, we're stuck with Hegel. For all the limitations, for all the poetry, for all the sort of metaphysical lapses in it, it's the last great attempt to articulate the meaning and the significance of all human existence.
Speaking as a teacher of Transcendentalism, etc. Well that's lovely and very well laid out. A wonderful lecturer.
Thanks! I am studying again these philosophers I thought I knew so well.
Fantastic presentation
This is incredibly beautiful
Wow. Incredible foresight. Brilliant guy. I’ve learned more from Sugrue than I have anywhere else. I’m incredibly grateful for these lectures.
Just helped me out tremendously, especially the analogies to Kant and the descriptions of chialism and eschatology.. Thank you!
Think how modernity has really messed up society and that is a good thing hey 😂
Michael Sugrue was clearly a brilliant man with amazing comprehension of the history of ideas ... absolutely love his lectures.
Great lecture. Thank you.
How is this guy so good at lecturing
Opposites chronological order definitions
God bless you Dr. Sugrue.
I’m new to Sugrue and his lectures and very much enjoying his approach.
Kierkegaard supposed that we are faced with a life choice of either an aesthetic or ethical life.
When I was a young man(more than 50 years ago) I considered my life’s path and the 2 choices discussed went, rather crudely, through my mind. I did come to a conclusion that satisfied both my aesthetic and ethical ideals.
I took up the path of a gardener, specifically
Japanese gardens.
With a more than thousand year history guided by the egalitarian traditions of both Shinto and Buddhist disciplines.
There was also the added benefit of a physically rigorous effort to execute the practice and principles of an ecologically and ethically correct path.
A good life,indeed, resulted.
I feel asleep during a terrible headache and this video turned on. In the dream the Hegelian concepts were laid out through symbols which I could distinclty understand, while I was walking around a temple-like setting with palms and old acquantances. I found that profound for some reason, I need to get into this stuff more.
What a great teacher.
You presented other thinkers with dignity. I wish you a Hagelian understanding of it. Its captivating and especially from the idea of the seed that holds the oak tree point of view. I cannot say RIP because i dont know anymore that these letters hold the message they have been burdened with but if you are still an orater's consciousness in someone thats fine by me as you are a part of me and all humanity due to the phases you went thru and was part of change for good or worse; still a phase. Thank you, sir.
Sugrue is the man!
This was extremely useful! thank you!
Love your lectures. Thank you ✌️
A perfect class/talk.
Thank You!
Listening to this while working out
Excellent lecture, 11/10
Simply brilliant big thinking lecture. Great humor and irony too. I found myself laughing out loud at times.
26:56 hahahah we had so many of these moments in our post grad philosophy department. Love it!
Rest in peace Dr. Sugrue ! You will be missed a lot
What a great man. Thank you Hegel
What an amazing man.
One word: Superb!
Great lecture....
He is really brilliant
Great lecture, the relation expounded between kant's and christian morality as well as, subsequently, hegel's philosophy and christian eschatology is especially interesting.
Imagine there's no heaven....
@@johnnydepp3801 imagine there is....
Excellent
He once had to fill in at the last minute on a lecture about Machiavelli. He filled up 45 minutes without notes , just a great mind well read.
This is accurate. Hegels whole philosophy basically stems from his dialectical view of human nature and it’s interaction with nature (the physical world) and with other humans. Good stuff.
Wow youtube algorithm sometimes hits the nail on the head.
Amazing lecture.
Fantastic
Amazing.
amazing expression.
Fantastic!!👏👏
Great presentation of very squirrelly minds.
we go from plato envisioning the city-state, the People or the Polis, as its own organism with a soul to hegel envisioning the whole of humanity in a similar way...this is my first time engaging with western philosophy at this level of depth and im so excited to discover more!!!!
my favorite teaching company lecture
"teaching company" lol
@@pointblank3409 thats their name btw.
@@ME-ud5fo o really? I thought you were calling universities in general, teaching company
I mean that’s kinda what they are nowadays
just smoothly deep
Amazing! I would like to learn more about Hegel's use of alchemy.
Thank you very much it really helps me to study and also watching it inspires me on how I should work on similiar topic. However I do not know what awaits a person in today's world after a Master or Phd degree in philosophy. But this is ofcourse not the topic of the video.
If you don’t listen : A+ asmr
If you listen: simply amazing

Brilliant.
The last five minutes of this were wild.
00:29 Teaching Hegel's philosophy in a short time is difficult
02:47 The concept of 'geist' implies a natural upwelling and essence of human existence.
07:20 Maturation is the process of development, where individuals realize their potentials.
09:33 Kant's Christian ethics provide a logical foundation for morality while Hegel's German idealism interprets Christian eschatology.
13:30 Hegel's philosophy of history explains the development and changes of human spirit over time.
15:28 The development of the geist according to its own necessary laws
19:02 Spirit learns about itself and becomes conscious of its essential characteristics.
20:54 Human beings are progressing in self-consciousness, increasing their knowledge and power.
24:28 Hegel's writing desk is where all history leads to the understanding of human self-consciousness
26:28 Hegel's philosophy is about everything and accounts for all of human doings
30:02 The career of spirit in human history is a remarkable intellectual achievement.
31:52 Enlightenment focused on transitioning from God to nature, while 19th century movements focused on history.
35:21 Attempts to fundamentally change human history have been made through ideologies and reforms.
37:10 The idea that we can no longer articulate our views or articulate thought in the same way as before
40:28 The impact and influence of Hegelian philosophy on intellectual concerns
42:10 Hegel's philosophy is a poetic attempt to explain the meaning and significance of human existence
Something I just noticed but damn this dude actually has style.
This man was amazing respect from
👏🏾 🫡🇲🇽
Beautiful
Dr Sugrue I’m from the futre and you’re right. We’re still coming up with new end of history epochs! Great lecture! Hegel really thought he had finally gotten gold out of lead wink wink
