You must know you're advancing a recent idea about Hegel? I believe your viewpoint has about fifty years of age to it, and few observers made these claims prior. Now, as popular as this 'recovery' of hegel has been- it has been strongly argued against with very manifest arguments from the major hegelian works. I guess it could be that people misinterpreted hegel for a century and then we managed to figure him out correctly in the post war.... but what I am convinced actually happened is that Hegel was so popular and influential that after his dialectical methods became seen as silly, in order to preserve the myriad fields that had been founded by their use , a hasty revision was developed so that we didn't have to throw away all his ideas had spawned.
