Dear Andrew,

Thank you for your mail!


Yes!

The 'objective representation' offers an incomplete picture. But, in relation to development of the Idea of the Philosophy.

In Anselm itself (not himself), this representation is the best the one that the Thought can to go. But, this representation offers an incomplete picture because it isn�t the self-movement of the content of the representation himself, or, the passage of the representation to Concept in-and-for-itself.

For to distinguish, on the
correct basis, the 'objective representation of Anselm' and 'the
process of self-reflection of the Reason himself leaves is necessary to retake the principle of the modern subjectivity. In brief, the question of the beginning and the objectivity in Hegel�s philosophy.

The one side, the problem of the absolute Beginning as the unity of beginning of the Thought (objective beginning, in hegelian sense, The One, The Idea, etc.) and the beginning for the Thought (subjective beginning, in hegelian sense, I, subjectivity herself). But, the absolute Beginning can not to make , not at all, none pressuposition.

The other side, the problem of the objectivity. This objectivity is the objectivity of the Concept (the absolute subjectivity), the process of the realization of the his freedom and the his return in itself as Idea. But, the objectivity isn�t the Reality and isn�t the Actuality; it is one side of the Actuality, the Concept is the other.

Finally, the absolute Beginning is the Unity of the pure Being and the pure Thoght, or, the pure Oneself. But, this is for the philosopher, not for the Science itself; the philosophy hasn�t beginning in sense the others sciences. This beginning is for the philosopher his elevation to the speculative science; in the speculative science, the objective thought of the philosopher (for example, the objective representation of Anselm) is comprehended. Of this manner only, the whole of the science is the presentation of the Idea.

The absolute Beginning of the philosophy, as Philosophy of the Absolute, is absolutely the recognition of the self-movement of the Content as passage to consciousness of the self-movement of the content itself. The passage of the substance to concept and his realization in the objectivity. In brief, the self-comprehension of the Idea of the philosophy herself; or, of God himself.

Welcome. I'm afraid I can't read your quote, or even source it. So
I'll have to rely on your comments. You seem to be making two related
points. One is that 'objective representation' offers an incomplete
picture. O.K. The other is that failing to distinguish, on the
correct basis, the 'objective representation of Anselm' and 'the
process of self-reflection of the Raison [Reason?] himself' leaves
one without a proper understanding of that relation. Could you please
have another go at that second point with some elaboration.
Regards
Andrew Hunter
