7077 | The true is the whole [Hegel] |
Full Idea: The true is the whole. | |
From: Georg W.F.Hegel (Phenomenology of Spirit [1807], Pref 20) | |
A reaction: This is the full idealist coherence view of truth, that one only approaches the Truth (capital T) as one builds up a more and more coherent picture. It makes truth unattainable, and that strikes me as a bit silly. |
