Početak Hegelove Logike
The Beginning of Hegel’s Logic

Summary/Abstract: Hegel’s “Logic”, in the words of its author as well, actually constitutes his metaphysics. According to the general plan of his speculative-dialectical doctrine, beginning of logic is at the same time beginning and foundation of his philosophical system. Likewise, the Beginning is the immediate-first, but always already dertermined by the completion and end of “Logic”. As to He¬gel’s reasoning about the beginning of logic this paper relies mostly on his The Science of Logic but also recures to the corresponding passages of his Encyclopedia of Philosophical Sciences. It exposes Hegel’s analyses of the possible starting points in determining that beginning, as well as the determination itself. The paper concludes with thesis that the required beginning - consisting of pure being, i. e. being and nothing, and its mutual relation in the form of becoming - can be fully understood only if Hegel’s belief in speculative-dialectic nature of statements of his philosophical doctrine is accepted.
