Summary/Abstract: The paper analyzes basic elements of the concept of education as it was outlined in Philosophy of Right and Encyclopaedia of Philosophical Sciences. Author confutes the thesis on different education concepts in Phenomenology of Spirit and later Hegel’s works and tries to show that Hegel’s conception of education is shown in its duplicity from the very beginning. That duplicity isn’t related to difference between education and being educated, but to the interrelation of education in its wider and education in its narrower sense. Thus, it is shown that the narrower sense of education – as process that refines particularity and enables it to conduct itself in harmony with the nature of the object - is funded in a wither sense of education, as a self-development of spirit.
