Summary: Different translations, same review page
Comment: Some of the apparent disagreements below stem from the fact that different editions of this book share a review page. The reviewer who gave the date of 1967 was referring to the Knox translation (highly recommended). The "Great Books in Philosophy" edition is indeed based on a much older translation (by Dyde). The reviewer who wrote to "correct" the date was reviewing the Dyde version and was unaware that the earlier reviewer was talking about the Knox.

Summary: Hegel's Encyclopaedia of Social Life
Comment: The book is a fascinating encyclopaedia of human life in all its social dimensions starting from our relation to a thing (property) and going on to relation between states in world history. Hegel's categorisation of social institutions contains some contraversial statements. But they all add to the fascination of reading the book.

Unfortunatelly Knox's translation does make it very difficult to comprehend some crucial passages, especially where Hegel's deals with the concept of Right in refined speculative terms. It also contains some basic mistakes which make a comparative reading of the English and the German text an anoying experience.

Summary: Date of translation
Comment: This readable translation was originally published in 1896 (not 1967) and there are two very fine and more recent translations of this book by T.M. Knox and H.B. Nisbet (with slightly different titles).
