VIEWEG, Klaus. EL GRAN TEATRO DEL MUNDO: La filosofía hegeliana de la historia como consideración pensante del acontecer humano con intención racional, liberal y cosmopolita.Translated byRomán Gutiérrez Cuartango. Estud.filos [online]. 2005, n.32, pp.75-87. ISSN 0121-3628.

The reflections presented in this paper refer to three interesting aspects of the Hegelian project that can show the current relevance of this thought, that is, the rational, liberal and cosmopolitan-global intention of his theory of history. From a systematical viewpoint, the philosophy of history constitutes the key to Hegel´s practical philosophy, which was characterized by him as philosophy of right. This latter contains jurisprudence, ethics and a theory of the ethical forms. Simultaneously, the philosophy of universal history represents, within the systematical Hegelian architectonics, the transitional point from the objective to the philosophy of the absolute spirit; that is, the bridge between the objects of practical philosophy and art, religion and philosophical knowledge.

Keywords : Hegel; philosophy of history; rational intention; cosmopolitan intention; liberal intention.
