Zur Sache Selbst: The Common and the Universal in Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit
Zur Sache Selbst: The Common and the Universal in Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit
This chapter outlines a structural interpretation of the Hegelian statement, “Tun aller und jeder,” or TAJ, and its function within Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit, in order to pave the way for a better understanding of what at the heart of the “system,” and sometimes against it, constitutes the irreducible singularity of this work. At the same time the chapter also considers the debates surrounding interpretations of Hegel's work. The expression das Tun aller und jeder occurs at the end of Chapter V, Section C, §a (“The spiritual animal kingdom and deceit, or the 'matter in hand' itself”), and it is almost immediately taken up again in the Introduction to Chapter VI (“Spirit,” der Geist).
Keywords: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Phenomenology of Spirit, TAJ, Tun aller und jeder, Spirit, der Geist
