In Positions\, Derrida stated that &ldquo\;we will never be finished with the reading or rereading of the Hegelian text.&rdquo\; Hegel's impact on all areas of thought cannot be overstated. Recent decades have seen the efflorescence of publications such as Hegel and the Foundations of Literary Theory (Habib 2018)\, or Reading Hegel: Irony\, Recollection\, Critique (Scott 2025)\, which attempt to retrace the pervasiveness of Hegel's thought\, the hostility as well as hospitality it underwent in literary critical discourse\, or Hegel and Shakespeare on Moral Imagination (Bates 2010)\, which cross-reads Hegel and Shakespeare to reciprocally shed light on each other. This panel addresses: What can we learn from the conjunction of Hegel's philosophy with literature? What has one learned from such a conjunction? How does one read (or has read) after Hegel?\, and even how can the question of reading be addressed in a thinker to whom (in his criticism of Kant in the Encyclopaedia Logic\, for one) understanding is inseparable from existence? We invite papers that experiment with encounters between the Hegelian and the poetic language\, Hegel's influence on Theory\, Hegel&rsquo\;s aesthetic writings\, relations between Hegel and Romanticisms\, interpretations of particular authors informed by readings of Hegel\, and the like.
