(1997) Hegel's phenomenology of spirit, Dordrecht, Springer.
The general intent of this paper is to examine Hegel's preoccupation with the question of beginnings. To anticipate, in Hegel's view every account in respect to its beginning — indeed, everything in respect to its beginning — is both immediate and mediated. All things therefore begin having already begun; all things begin in medias res. But if all things begin having already begun, all things begin as a rupture of one sort or another.1
