The time sublated in Absolute Knowledge is alienation itself, not time generally

Evidence

Clearly, in the chapter on ‘Absolute Knowledge’, the time Hegel is talking about is the time of alienation: even more precisely, this time is EntĂ€ußerung itself. As a form of temporality, the time analysed here represents a determinate epoch in the translation from spirit to the sensuous. It is, speciïŹcally, the moment in which the concept gives itself the shape of an existent thing, becoming in its turn the object of sensory intuition, of a momentary phenomenal presence. In the chapter on ‘Absolute Knowledge’ Hegel is not considering time in general but linear time, the time in which the subject ‘sees itself as a passing moment’. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 908
