most people only read the preface anyways, that's where most of the memes are. honestly you shouldn't even read the book, that's a classic mistake. just pretend you know what he's talking about like everyone else on /lit/ does.

The Preface is a foretelling for Hegel's entire philosophical system.

Read the YouTube comments take on Zizek's take on Hegel and you should get it.

Has anyone read both of these editions? I've also heard that reading a few of his essays is the best primer for this book.

I've read the preface/introduction of both, but I don't speak German so I can't tell you what it better. I preferred Pinkard's avoidance of capitalizing nouns.
