@100radoja If you need help understanding Hegel, look up Andy Blunden. He's written quite a bit on Hegel, and it's been an invaluable help for me. Also, have you read the Preface to Phenomenology of Spirit? It's a relatively clear intro to Hegelianism.
I think I understand the name of this lecture.... the basic content is Zizek uttering the name of Hegel, running as far away from him conceptually as possible and then carving a circuitous and often dubious route back, "the return", indeed, to Hegel.
None the less, very entertaining. Wouldn't want to have him as a lecturer though...
I think that Zizek employs the amazing scope of presented issues what Deleuze calls rhizomatic thinking, and yet manages to stay with the topic and talks about one of the the most dull and cumbersome philosophers ever in an intriguing and interesting way.
Those who prefer 'pure' Hegel go and read him or watch other vids from the sixties like "Peter Singer on Hegel and Marx" where it's Hegel for the dummies, as it were.
I watched some of Zizek`s lecture, and first of all, I am not sure what is initially talking about. He starts with one issue and jumps from issue to issue so often that I lose my self trying to get him. If the theme of this lecture is Hegelian concept of the philosophy, why he does not talk about it. I have red Hegel and I need some help to understand his concept. Some of his ideas are familiar to me but Zizek does not help me at all.
If one weren't informed quite possibly otherwise, it would seem Zizek had just done a bunch of coke with all his sniffling and constant nose snuffing, and tiks of many types...but who knows. I'm not the one sitting in front of a crowd at a seminar speaking on a very influential philosopher...
Žižek is, without doubt, the finest lecturer in philosophy alive today, I think. I'm not a German idealist, but I love to hear him talk on just about anything.
@eduardorenato thank you for the comment. i dont think so, as she was conducting her own workshops the same day. let me put it that way: workshops and seminars at european graduate school can be quite exhausting, any free minute is usually spent up in the mountains, glaciers, rocks and with the mountain goats ;)

Alright just watched this lecture. Very entertaining and informative, but if you are after pure Hegel, don't bother at all.

The 'dialectical triad' is to be found in FICHTE.

Shit,
I've been trying to get some idea, some humble of understanding of HEGEL and Zizek says most scholarship is wrong. About almost everything....
Wrong about teleology, wrong about the dialectic, wrong, wrong Wrong.
Somebody help me understand what the hell is going on with Hegel. And with Zizek's interpretation.
Zizek is entertaining but not a good teacher.

I like the way he says please be patient this is a serious lecture, then somehow they end up doing a short seminar on fucking.

I love Zizek; what a wonderful sense of humour, he reminds me of Spike Milligan.
