“Each of the parts of philosophy is a philosophical whole, a circle rounded and complete in itself. In each of these parts, however, the philosophical Idea is found in a particular specificality or medium. The single circle, because it is a real totality, bursts through the limits imposed by its special medium, and gives rise to a wider circle. The whole of philosophy in this way resembles a circle of circles. The Idea appears in each single circle, but, at the same time, the whole Idea is constituted by the system of these peculiar phases, and each is a necessary member of the organisation.” WayGivingIdeasRealPhilosophyWholeFoundSpecialParticularLimitsMembersPhilosophicalCirclesMediumsPeculiarPhasesOrganisationTotality Author:Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
