Hegel alone achieved consciousness of contradictions within a single system
Evidence
In the history of philosophical thought Hegel represents a chapter on his own, since in his system, in one way of another, even in the form of a “philosophical romance”, one manages to understand what reality is. That is to say, one finds, in a single system and in a single philosopher, that consciousness of contradictions which one previously acquired from the ensemble of systems and of philosophers in polemic and contradiction with each other. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 1436
