Evidence

Catherine Malabou also contrasts her account of Hegelian temporality with the interpretation given by Heidegger in Being and Time, arguing that it is the concept of ‘plasticity’ that best describes Hegel’s theory of temporality. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 2

Categorization

  • XREF: Directly connects to the reader’s stated purpose — plasticity as the theoretical root of her brain work. This is the bridge between Hegel and contemporary neuroscience of neuroplasticity. — connects to: Hegel’s temporalizing plasticity resists Heidegger’s charge of vulgar time — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 1272; Plasticity for Hegel means the future exceeding itself and time exceeding itself — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 210; Plasticity enables authentic temporality’s characteristics to be conceived — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 1274 (+6 more)
  • DEFINE: Establishes plasticity as the master concept for reading Hegel’s temporality — the load-bearing term to be defined throughout.
  • SEED: The ‘plasticity vs. Heideggerian temporality’ contrast is itself an essay angle: how a dialectical (plastic) view of time differs from Heidegger’s existential-ontological one, and what that means for a materialist account of brain change.
