Ok guys I have read one page of Hegel and I already want to rip my eyes out of their sockets. How can I read Hegel in a way that is easier? Is there a method I can apply while reading? I refuse to die without understanding this fucker.

    yeah that’s how i felt years ago just reading the beginning of phenomenology of spirit, and he beat me…couldn’t fucking take it.

    I would say take notes, and take your time. An old phil professor I had read slowly, sometimes the same page over and over again until he understood fully the point being made by whoever he was reading. But he was, uh, dedicated, so I don’t know if that will work for you or not.
