Talk:Being in itself

Being-for-itself

 * Can't understand why the being-for-itself article was deleted. Can't make sense of that. Anyway I've added in some basics about Sartrean Being-in-itself. Without getting over the top with terminology. I'll grammaticalise it a bit tomorrow. Sludgehaichoi 22:38, 28 December 2006 (UTC)


 * This article is completely wrong. Hegel (nineteenth century) develops the concept of "being-in-itself (Ansichsein)." Someone needs to rewrite this altogether, or the article needs to be discarded, and readers can go to philosophers' pages, where their subjects are already elaborated.


 * Agree that with no mention of Hegel the article as it stands is fatally inadequate. Also, the Heidegger section is inaccurate. Heidegger's Being is not the same thing as being-for-itself as that term was and is used in philosophy, and Heidegger does not claim that it is.
