Abstract: It’s more reliable and appropriate to interpret Hegel’s philosophy and political philosophy from the perspective of French Revolution.Hegel’s whole  philosophy can be regarded as a philosophical reflection to the French Revolution,and absolute liberty and terror is a typical comment of Hegel’s rational critical series to French Revolution.In Hegel’s political philosophy,the social and political practice of French Revolution is a dialectical adventure of liberty,which leads to violence and terror.To get out of the dilemma of liberty,it is needed to experience a realistic ethics state regulation.

Key words: Hegel, French Revolution, absolute liberty and terror, political philosophy
