Reason in history..............................................................................................................................31
To begin with, there is the historical fact that the Greek, Anaxagoras, was the first to say that
nous—understanding in general, or Reason—rules the world.....................................................32
The second version of the thought that Reason rules the world is related to a further application
of it, with which we are well acquainted in the form of the religious truth that the world is not
subject to chance and to external contingencies, but that it is ruled by a Providence.................32

The nature of spirit.......................................................................................................................33

The theory that confronts us first is the direct contrary to our concept of the State as the
actualization of freedom: namely, the view that the human being is free by nature, but that in
society and in the state (of which he is necessarily a part) he must limit this natural freedom of
his.................................................................................................................................................38
There is a second theory to be mentioned, and this denies the general development of
[abstract] Right into the form of Law. The patriarchal condition (prevailing either in the entire
human race, or at least in some single branches of it) is regarded as the situation in which the
ethical and emotional element finds its fulfilment, along with the element of [abstract] Right. .39
