NATURE AND HISTORY IN HEGEL'S IDEALIST PHILOSOPHY: ONTOLOGICAL CLUES FOR UNDERSTANDING HUMAN BEING AND CORPOREALITY

This literature review presents the development of nature and history as categories in Hegel's work. It is understood that more solid indications are found in the philosopher, albeit abstract, of a path towards an ontology of social being. Such a path allows us to observe the logical-conceptual treatment of these categories, as well as to enable the initial comprehension about the body - a topic that is highly present in the Physical Education debate - within this process. We conclude that such development presents a logical-dialectical operation about these categories and about the notion of the body itself. However, it is still limited in its excessively abstract treatment, by focusing on spirit and logic to address these and other categories.
