Napoleon and Hegel at Jena

In this lecture we provide an account of Hegel’s encounter with Napoleon at Jena to understand Hegel’s philosophy of spirit and heroism as it relates to Napoleon. The lecture discusses Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit, human archetypes, and why Napoleon is a “Hero” in the Hegelian outlook.
