El pensamiento como principio: Descartes según Hegel en las Lecciones de historia de la filosofía

the aim of this paper is to present hegel's developments on descartes' thinking in the vorlesungen über die geschichte der philosophie, taking three moments into consideration: 1) hegel's option for the principles; 2) descartes' position in the "history of philosophy"; and 3) some reflections concerning the thesis of "moving forward in thought", which is only possible if history of philosophy is seen not as a "gallery of opinions" but as a source of inexhaustible problems and questions.
