Adorno XIII 79
Spirit/idealism/Adorno: the spirit is limited in the Kantian formulation, but absolute in the following idealists. This difference is so much a matter of the whole that every single concept, which occurs in these philosophies, changes.
>I. Kant, >Absolute Mind, >G.W.F. Hegel, >Spirit/Fichte.
Given/idealism/Adorno: in the case of the consequent idealists, the given, which is actually given by Kant, is itself derived.
>Given.
Infinite/idealism/Adorno: these idealists have ultimately taken the infinite into philosophy, with the immense consequence that the thinking of the finite human being, assuming itself as a thinking of the Infinite, presumed to be able to set the Absolute out of itself and to derive it from itself.
>Infinity, >Absoluteness.
