Hegelian appearance is always being-for-another in dual temporal and supersensible senses

Evidence

‘Appearance’, declares Hegel in the Lectures, ‘is being for the other’. The phenomenon, qua moment, is always the manifestation of something other than itself. And this relation to alterity is a twofold one. The phenomenon, like the ‘now’ that passes by, implies a relation to a new ‘now’, to another instant. In so far as it designates an other, the phenomenon is immediacy which is at the same time mediated: it points towards the supersensible world just as it points to truth, the truth into which it is taken up. Hence, the phenomenon relates to alterity in both the sense of the ‘other’ moment and the ‘other’ world. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 878
