A Commentary to Hegel’s Science of LogicThe absolute relation

A Commentary to Hegel’s Science of Logic: The absolute relation [Classically, Substance is “a subject of predication or bearer of attributes that cannot itself be borne by anything else. [It is] an enduring substratum of change.”1 For Hegel Substance is the subsistence of semblance,2 “the final unity of essence and being.” (555) Substance implies Appearance all the way down. There is no mysterious “beyond” that grounds Appearance. Appearance grounds itself. Appearance manifested – or Actuality – is finally in and for itself. Substance does nothing but manifest itself and it does this by erasing itself.3] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[Classically, Substance is “a subject of predication or bearer of attributes that cannot itself be borne by anything else. [It is] an enduring substratum of change.”1 For Hegel Substance is the subsistence of semblance,2 “the final unity of essence and being.” (555) Substance implies Appearance all the way down. There is no mysterious “beyond” that grounds Appearance. Appearance grounds itself. Appearance manifested – or Actuality – is finally in and for itself. Substance does nothing but manifest itself and it does this by erasing itself.3]
