The idea is to engage with the first two parts of Hegel's Doctrine of Essence in the Logic, and so the workshop is highly focused and exegetical in scope. These two parts, particularly the section on reflexion, are notoriously difficult, so we intend to work with the text, unpack the concepts and aim to get a grasp on what role mediation and immediacy play in Hegel's thought at this stage.
One of the claims Hegel makes during these sections is that mediation is fundamentally not external to things, but that it is in fact a prerequisite for their concrete existence. This mediation, as essence, is the inwardness 'stepping out' (SL 416-18/11.321-24, trans. Di Giovanni), and as such is the manner in which things-in-themselves, as property, can be logically specified. Here's just one place Hegel's thought comes in dialogue with other thinkers, such as Kant and Fichte, but there are many more interesting points of contact.
