Does Jacobi’s unphilosophical criticism of the system apply to Hegel’s metaphysics of absolute negativity? Hegel’s system is seen as the pinnacle of systematic-systemic philosophizing. Meaningful criticism would seem impossible. Jacobi attempts to find a critical mode that emerges from the system’s own logic without being trapped by it. Althof examines the leap that is “unphilosophy” and applies it against the mature Hegelian system.
