The Philosophy of Fine Art, volume 3 (of 4): Hegel's Aesthetik
Georg Hegel · en
[Footnote 142: _Macht sich._ That is an operative principle in the
working out of.]
[Footnote 143: _Als Seele_, _i.e._, in the narrow sense of the
expression above defined.]
[Footnote 144: _Pathognomik_, _i.e._, the science, that is, of the
expression of the passions, together with that of their physiological
aspect.]
[Footnote 145: Lit., contingent subjectivity.]
[Footnote 146: Hegel's expression _Mienen_ is not easy to translate
by a single English equivalent. It signifies the passing look--the
general variety of facial expression as contrasted with the permanent
expression of substantive character.]
[Footnote 147: _Den eigentlichen Mienen._ The definite aspects of the
face which express relatively permanent states of soul-life.]
[Footnote 148: Persists in the line of direction of the Ideal.]
[Footnote 149: _Die schöne freie Nothwendigkeit._]
[Footnote 150: By _Witzigkeit_ I presume Hegel means oddity and
funniness of every kind--perhaps "humorous eccentricity" would
interpret it.]
[Footnote 151: I think this gives the sense, though the language is
rather confused because his image is that of invention attaching itself
to what is already presented rather than creating a form that is based
on external suggestion.]
[Footnote 152: The celebrated courtesan. She entered the sea with
dishevelled hair at a celebrated festival at Eleusis. She had a statue
of gold at Delphi.]
[Footnote 153: _Eigentlich Vorstellung ist._]
[Footnote 154: _Statarisch._ That is, modelled on historical
associations or the results of former work; perhaps "eclectic" would be
a better word.]
[Footnote 155: _Der geistige Ton._]
[Footnote 156: _De varietate nationum_, § 60.]
[Footnote 157: As in savage animals.]
[Footnote 158: The word _system_ is used, which is not readily
translated in this context, though I have adopted the literal
translation lower down.]
[Footnote 159: _Mildrung._ The softening of its severe lines.]
[Footnote 160: Werke, vol. IV, bk. 5, c. 5, § 20, p. 198.]
[Footnote 161: It is difficult to see what Hegel means exactly here by
_Schnitte._ I suppose he means the external lines of the eye-socket.]
[Footnote 162: _L.c._ § 29.]
[Footnote 163: _Flügeln_ must here refer to the orifices of the nose.]
[Footnote 164: Winck, _l.c._ § 37, p. 218.]
[Footnote 165: Hegel's word is _habitus._ Customary attitude and mode
of connection appears to be included.]
[Footnote 166: _Gebehrde_, a word somewhat difficult to translate here.
It seems to combine the ideas of gesture and pose.]
[Footnote 167: The reference is, of course, to painting and indirectly
to poetry.]
[Footnote 168: _Ein in sich versunkenes Dastehn oder Liegen._]
[Footnote 169: _Gediegenheit._]
[Footnote 170: See vol. I, pp. 268-272.]
[Footnote 171: _Das höhere Innere._]
[Footnote 172: _Das geistige Bewusstseyn._]
[Footnote 173: Her. I, _c._ 10.]
[Footnote 174: This vitality.]
[Footnote 175: Vol. V, bk. 2, p. 503.]
[Footnote 176: Vol. V, bk. 6, ch. 2, p. 56.]
