The essay focuses on Hegel’s  Vorlesungen über die Beweise vom Dasein Gottes (1829) as a pivotal text in his Berliner reflections on how to philosophically ground an object of scientific consideration. The guiding thread is the shift from the metaphysical account of the existence of God to the elevation of spirit. The claim is that the overcoming of the subjective character of the proofs in their customary form is not a supervenient consequence of the elevation, nor a preliminary task explored just in the first part of the lectures (on Beweisen in general) and not in the last one (on Gottesbeweise). It is rather their main issue – a methodological process, which is «on its own account the sublation of the one-sidedness of subjectivity in general and of knowledge above all».

Abstract

The essay focuses on Hegel’s  Vorlesungen über die Beweise vom Dasein Gottes (1829) as a pivotal text in his Berliner reflections on how to philosophically ground an object of scientific consideration. The guiding thread is the shift from the metaphysical account of the existence of God to the elevation of spirit. The claim is that the overcoming of the subjective character of the proofs in their customary form is not a supervenient consequence of the elevation, nor a preliminary task explored just in the first part of the lectures (on Beweisen in general) and not in the last one (on Gottesbeweise). It is rather their main issue – a methodological process, which is «on its own account the sublation of the one-sidedness of subjectivity in general and of knowledge above all».
