Hegel’s Man-God-Philosopher triad are temporal perspectives, not fixed substances

Evidence

The choice of this triad – ‘Man, God, Philosopher’ – is intended to allude explicitly to Heidegger’s articulation of ‘onto-theology’. The challenge here is to produce an interpretation of this triad that uncovers all the surprises it has in store for a reading concerned to present Man, God and the Philosopher not as if they were fixed and substantial entities but as perspectives open to the crossroads of time. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 287
