Top Comments of this video!! :3
I'm usually kind of reluctant to write comments, but I have to say that Your channel is a real gem and these videos that You make, are truly almost one-of-a-kind: deep, insightful, well-rounded, amazingly picturesque and really interesting to watch and ponder with... It's just really brilliant, top-notch content in my opinion. Hopefully more people would appreciate it.

My philosophy teacher in school who was smart and obviously interested in philosophy said he made a several attempts to read Hegel's " فنومينولوجيا الروح" (title of his book " The Phenomenology of Spirit" in arabic) but wasn't able to, because it was too difficult to understand... I hope he'll watch this video to understand more about hegel!!!

Oh my God, thank you so much for this video! I've been reading The Phenomenology on and off for about 5 years now. I keep coming back to it, getting a little farther and then starting all over again. And my biggest fear as I've gotten to understand it (I haven't made it further than the end of Reason) is that I'm understanding it completely wrongly. I think I get it, and then I feel this intense doubt, like I'm just projecting things that aren't there or reading this ludicrously dense text incorrectly. And often I don't terribly agree with Findlay's commentary that I've occasionally paired with it.
But 25 minutes into the video, and here you are describing EXACTLY what I had gotten from the early parts of Sense Certainty. I nearly cried. It's just so validating to see that I am at least somewhat on the right track when it comes to reading and comprehending the text.
It can be alienating trying to read philosophy texts outside of a classroom with no one else to discuss the text with, no professor to ask clarifying questions, no feedback of any kind. And it can feel like I'm slipping into a totally idiosyncratic or solipsistic view on the work. But I also want to be able to read the text for myself and not stuck in a loop of reading more commentary than the actual thing.
