[Footnote 103: Professor Bosanquet points out in a note on this passage (p. 101) that _Sittlichkeit_ here, which he translates, as I have done, "respectability," is the _habit_ of virtue, without the reflective aspiration after goodness as an ideal. Of course there is no depreciation in the use of the term. It is simply the morality of ordinary people, who do generally what their neighbours think the right thing. The word _moralität_ and _moralisch_, which I have only been able to translate by a paraphrase, is the morality of the standpoint discussed, which is very much that of Kant or "Duty for duty's sake" in Bradley's "Ethical Studies."] [Footnote 104: That is the contingency of the world of Nature as contrasted with the essential stability of mind or spirit.] [Footnote 105: Lit., "To satisfy itself in its _real_ or independent self (_für sich_)." It cannot identify itself with either side as its wholly real self made therein explicit. It is neither fish nor fowl.] [Footnote 106: _Bestimmüngen_ may here be a reference to man's broadest spiritual characterizations as one of the human family, the race, the nation, and so forth, or, as I think, a reference to his vocation, future destiny, general welfare.] [Footnote 107: _An und für sich Wahre._] [Footnote 108: _Unbefangenen_, _i.e._, the naïve outlook of ordinary life.] [Footnote 109: Professor Bosanquet merely translates _are not_ and _are_ in italic as in the text, which of course, except that he adds a comma after _are_, is a literal translation. But the sense, as I understand it, is that the writer says it is not in the sense that these two contradictories do not exist _at all_ (_i.e._, as relative reality), but rather in the sense that in _philosophical thought_ which grasps their essence they are not only present but present as reconciled factors of one truth. Professor Bosanquet's translation appears to me to amount to this: that all Hegel maintains is that the sense he means is not that such contradictory elements are _not_ reconciled, but in the sense that they _are_ reconciled. Perhaps this is his view. But if so, I fail to see the importance of the antithesis, which appears to me between _gar nicht sind_ and _in Versöhnung sind._ Hegel before had expressly said that such contradictory sides were reconciled in philosophy, so I do not see why he should so emphatically repeat himself. The comma, of course, may be a misprint.] [Footnote 110: _Begriff._ Notion, or concrete Idea of it.] [Footnote 111: Of that world in its opposition to reason.] [Footnote 112: _Der Mensch als er geht und steht._ The man in ordinary conditions—-the _average_ man, however, rather than the _natural_ man, which carries slightly different associations.]
