 The Word Made Flesh or Hegel’s Incarnation of LogicJohn Rosenthal
Chapter 9 in The Myth of Dialectics, 1998, pp 98-110 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract It is fair to say that in principle the entirety of the Hegelian system is or, at any rate, is supposed to be contained implicitly in the Logic, that, in effect, the entirety of the system is the Logic. The particular division of the system which bears the name ‘logic’ is supposed to provide the exposition of the pure ‘determinations of thought’ or Denkbestimmungen in their ‘dialectical’ self-development. Again, the putative character of this development as a self development has to be stressed (though not naively credited, of course). Beginning with the most simple abstract determinations, those which are allegedly just ‘there before us’ when nothing else is presupposed1 - viz. being and nothing - the totality of the determinations constitutive of ‘pure thought’ is supposed then to produce itself in a necessary movement, governed, namely, by precisely that principle of self-transcending contradiction which is here in question.
