Thanks a lot for the gesture, and to Michael also. I will be on my way soon,
hounded off the list--nope, I am never hounded, I am done for the nonce.
Doesn't matter. This kind of hostility wears off. I must remember just how

If truth is whole, Hegelian truth would do well to be studied in the context
of the whole of German philosophy, if not world philosophy. The sudden
re-start, in medias res, in the wake of Kant and the mysterious decade of the
1790's as Kant's system is a) transcended b) plundered of the mummy
Hi Ian, Ken and Andrew,
What is the whole? How could we possibly test/verify/falsify Hegel's
assertion? It was Protagoras who said man is the measure...

What is the whole? How could we possibly test/verify/falsify Hegel's
assertion [that the truth -- or the true -- is the whole]?
I liked Carrol's answer, but I have my own. Hegel's assertion is more a way
of testing/verifying/falsifying theories than it is an assertion of truth.

As I recall, Thrasymachus says that justiice is the interest of the stronger

There is no beginning in Hegel's philosophy. To grasp one part is to
grasp, by necessity, all of it. My German is too patchy to make sense
