[Footnote 129: Like the "vaulting ambition" of Shakespeare which falls on the other side, is _über sich selbst._] [Footnote 130: _Haltung._ Professor Bosanquet translates this "conduct." I rather think it refers to "bearing, demeanour." They are, as we say, "featureless, flaccid figures."] [Footnote 131: _Läppische._ I am not quite sure what is exactly meant. Professor Bosanquet translates it "grotesque." But the word is a provincial form of _Schlaff_ apparently--loose, flaccid and so childish, trifling.] [Footnote 132: _Moment._ A phase in an evolutionary, or, as it is here, a dialectical process. A momentary feature of it.] [Footnote 133: This final section is called the Division of the Subject.] [Footnote 134: _Subjektivität._ That is, the ideality of consciousness, or thought.] [Footnote 135: Professor Bosanquet, in his note on this passage, expresses the opinion that Hegel when he writes thus is referring "To the self-consciousness of individual human beings as constituting, and reflecting on, an ideal unity between them." This no doubt, as he suggests, does put a somewhat unnatural meaning on the word "person" or "subjekt." No doubt there is a sense in which we can ascribe personality to a state, or nation, in the concrete unity of its life. But while admitting that unity such as this, which is not sensuous but ideal, can be "effective and actual," I find it difficult to conclude that Hegel did himself hold that the unity of the Divine Being was _merely_ identical with the unity or totality of concrete human life as reflected upon by single individuals. How far is human life as a whole on this Earth a unity or totality at all? That question has been discussed by Professor Bradley and others with very different conclusions. Nay, how far does human existence itself exhaust the actually present realization or self-realization of self-conscious Spirit or Intelligence? Whatever maybe the wisest answer to such and other questions I can hardly think that Hegel would have accepted Professor Bosanquet's interpretation as completely adequate.] [Footnote 136: _Fackeldistel_. "Torch thistle," a plant of the genus Cereus.] [Footnote 137: Or, "as mind and in mind."] [Footnote 138: That is to say, presents to itself to conscious grasp of itself as such Art-spirit (_als künstlerischer._)] [Footnote 139: The two evolutions here alluded to are (i) that of a particular way of regarding Nature, man, and God in a particular age and nation such as the Egyptian, Greek, and Christian viewed in express relation to art; (ii) The several arts--sculpture, music, poetry, etc., each on their own foundation and viewed relatively to the former evolution.]
