Right, I guess what seems significant is that how Hegelian he is seems to change somewhat in the 1890’s. I’ve not read up on the details of what changes when. But there does appear to be a difference from Guess to his Harvard Lectures. Indeed as I recall his Harvard lectures shocked people by how Hegelian he was at times. (With Hegelianism falling out of favor around that era)
