Focusing on the self-negation and reflective forms of Hegel's dialectics, this volume explores the core functions of subjectivity, free spirit, and practicality within Hegelian dialectics. As the second volume of a three-volume set, it provides insights into Hegel's dialectics and his overall philosophical thought. The book proposes and discusses the soul and form of Hegelian dialectics, with self-negation serving as the soul of Hegel's dialectics, representing the spirit of "nous." This core principle shapes the subjectivity, free spirit, and practicality of Hegel's dialectics, forming the foundation for all other dialectical laws.

The form of expression belonging to this negative dialectic is the reflective mode of thinking, representing the spirit of "logos." This reflective mode of thinking follows a logical procedure of reflecting on reflection, rendering the progression of Hegel's dialectical subject lawful, rational, and logical. The title will appeal to scholars and students interested in Hegel's and Marx's philosophy, German classical philosophy, and Western philosophy.
