natural language into formal language, as an important step within the clarification
of expression and the evaluate of arguments. the diversity of traditional language
constructions surveyed is broader and richer than in any competing

formal common sense as a self-discipline. "

This is the lesson that he had indeed learned from Fichte. ” But the point is that such a facticity, this immediacy of experience, ought to be absorbed conceptually even as facticity. It has to be comprehended positively. To avoid Fichte’s inevitable slide from logic into rhetoric, one needs a kind of conceptualization that permeates that facticity. And if Hegel did not want to travel the way of Schelling, which would have taken him to a pre-Kantian Spinozism, then the only avenue still open to him was to comprehend facticity discursively, without intuition or myth-making.

It is a differentiation internal to the subject matter of discourse because the “essential” proves to be such only to the extent that it manifests itself to be what the “unessential” would otherwise seem to be on its own account. ” Each thus refers to the other, and the resulting double reference constitutes the internal structure of the subject matter in question. ” The categories of “essence” are those of classical metaphysics: ground, existence, appearance, force, actuality, absolute, relation – just to mention the ones that make up the main headings.
