We try to answer this question that which of these books is conceptually prior to and a basis for understanding the other? Does “The Phenomenology of the Spirit” makes clear Hegel’s claims in “The Science of Logic” or does the latter form a frame for understanding the former’s content? We will show that what has been appeared in Hegel’s writings confirms none of these choices. Moreover, accepting each of them has some implausible consequences.
