Humans uniquely privilege hexis, yet other entities can also develop it

Evidence

In the Anthropology, Hegel brings to light the fact which is never explicitly addressed in De Anima: the idea that ις is the only theoretical moment where there is anything specific or privileged claimed for the νθρωπς. Nonetheless, as we shall see, man is not the only entity able to acquire ις. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 405
