Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, engraving by Lazarus Gottlieb Sichling after a lithograph by Julius Ludwig Sebbers, c. 1828; in the Universitätsbibliothek Leipzig, Germany.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel moved from Berne to Frankfurt am Main at the end of 1796 primarily because he was lonely in Berne and welcomed the opportunity to take a new tutorship position that his friend J.C.F. Hölderlin had secured for him.1
