In the presence of an O t h e r , an a b s o l u t e other, the absolutely different, the transcendent" (EHT 42). This Other is not posited or op-posited by the self, but is given only in the intensity and passion of one's response to the summons it addresses to us (EHT 13 1 4 15 16 40 French Hegel 90). Since, as Kierkegaard argues in The Sickness Unto D e a t h , the relation to an Other who "summons" us is the condition of subjective existence (passion), the relation and the Other are prior to the self (EHT 28-29, 42-^3).
Unhappy, happy in its unhappiness" (EHT 69-70). Like Kierkegaard, Wahl wouldn't have it any other way. It would be hard to overemphasize the importance of Wahl's criticisms of Hegel or his interpretation of Kierkegaard. The echoes in Sartre, particularly in the interrelated themes of contingency, anxiety, and vertigo, are striking enough, but so is the insistence on difference, dispersion and dissemination, later given so much play by Deleuze and Derrida. Derrida, it might be thought, has an altogether different project, since his philosophy seeks to displace consciousness as a primary term in favor of writing.
We have already seen this identification of the concept with an infinite, teleological subjectivity that doubles back on itself in Delbos. Like Wahl, Hyppolite uses this identification to underline Hegel's thesis that "the Absolute is a subject," but "an absolute that divides and rends itself [se dechire] in order to be absolute, which cannot be a yes except by saying no to the no" (GS 150/146; see GS 527/509); "the heart of the absolute is negativity" (GS 564-65/543^4/602-3/ 580-81). In that way, says Hyppolite, Hegel expresses pantragicism in panlogicism, which develops "difference into opposition, and opposition into contradiction" (GS 151/146).
