Abstract

For Hegel, Spinoza’s substance is the necessary beginning of all philosophy, but only its beginning, because it lacks the freedom of subjectivity. The French materialist critics – Althusser, Macherey, Deleuze – pointed out that Hegel reduced Spinoza’s system to a mere variation of Neoplatonic hierarchical ontology. The author argues that these critics themselves reduced Hegel to a simple inversion of Neoplatonic order. This mutual misreading nevertheless proves to be a productive one insofar as it revolves around key topics: critique of the philosophy of identity, rejection of emanative causality, and a concept of primordial difference. The author proposes to grasp these as the central question of negativity.
