Notes

Hegel#39;s reasonis counterintuitive: he wants to put contradictionback into reason and he wants to do so contra Kant

Reason looks out at the world and the world is its world. --- Hegel

Hegelbelieves that reasonis contingent on the self, not the opposite as many believe: that reason is not objective.

Hegelsays that Kant#39;s 12 categories are "a disgrace to science", and felt that there was just a single category, called "the category". "The category" allows for the connection between subject and reason. "The category" for Hegel is the subject and the object together (a bit like the split subjectin Lacanian psychoanalysis.

Every scientific experiment is searching for the truth of subjectivity, because that's what reason does. --- Todd McGowan

Hegel#39;s entire idea about reason is similar to the observer effect that you make a difference upon the world simply by observing it. He believes that we perform experiments with the purpose of stripping away our sensability from our insight, with the hope of arriving at a universal law, and that that's his critique of induction.

You think you're interested in quasars but you're really interested in subjectivity! --- Todd McGowan
